I need a good song about a girl growing up-Mother/daughter song?

Goodbye's (the saddest word) - Celine Dion I don't really like female singers, but I think this song is absolutely gorgeous! I hope you like it!! Mamma You gave life to me Turned a baby into a lady Mamma All you had to offer Was the promise of a lifetime of love Now I know There is no other Love like a mother's love for her child And I know A love so complete Someday must leave Must say goodbye Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near Someday you'll say that word and I will cry It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye Mamma You gave love to me Turned a young one into a woman Mamma All I ever needed Was a guarantee of you loving me 'Cause I know There is no other Love like a mother's love for her child And it hurts so That something so strong Someday will be gone, must say goodbye Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near Someday you'll say that word and I will cry It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye But the love you gave me will always live You'll always be there every time I call You offered me the greatest love of all You take my weakness and you make me strong And I will always love you 'til forever comes And when you need me I'll be there for you all the way I'll be there all life through I'll be there this I guarantee Mamma, I'll be I'll be there through the darkest nights I'll be the wings that guide your broken flight I'll be your shelter through the raging storm And I will love you 'till forever comes Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near Someday you'll say that word and I will cry It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye 'Till we meet again... Until then... Goodbye.

"Goodbye's (The saddest word)" Celine Dion

"Child of Mine" by Carole King. I personally think the lyrics are pretty timeless. :)

Joni Mitchell's 'Circle Game' Yesterday a child came out to wonder Caught a dragonfly inside a jar Fearful when the sky was full of thunder And tearful at the falling of a star Then the child moved ten times round the seasons Skated over ten clear frozen streams Words like, when youre older, must appease him And promises of someday make his dreams And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and dawn Were captive on the carousel of time We cant return we con only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game. Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now Cartwheels turn to car wheels thru the town And they tell him, Take your time, it wont be long now Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and dawn Were captive on the carousel of time We cant return we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty Though his dreams have lost some grandeur Coming true Therell be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty Before the last revolving year is through. And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down Were captive on the carousel of time We cant return, we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game
