Ella Henderson – 1996 lyrics
At ten past three in the afternoon in 1996
An eight pound baby arrived,
That was me
I don't know why I was brought to life
But I swear that I'm the luckiest girl alive
To be part of this family

And now I miss the times
When you'd hold my hand when I'm crossing the road
You'd never let me fall until it was time for you to let me go
And who knows when you're old and grey,
Who you're gonna grow up to be
But every day, I love you more
You did it all for me

I met by best friend by the age of three
And she grew up watching episodes of Lizzie Maguire
With me, on TV
Oh, we used to share our secrets, didn't care
About what we would say, even when it got embarrassing
I let you in

And now I wanna go back
To when we'd dress up and we'd put on a magic show
And I'd boss you around but you'd never frown
Never wanted to go home
And who knows when we're old and grey,
Who we're gonna grow up to be
But every day I love you more
You did it all for me

And I won't let these moments fade away
It's cause of you I'm who I am today
Little Miss from '96

And how I miss the times
When you'd hold my hand when I'm crossing the road
You'd never let me fall until it was time for you to let me go
And who knows when you're old and grey,
Who you're gonna grow up to be
But every day I love you more
You did it all for me

Every day I love you more
You did it all for me
