A little girl -
a little small for her age -
a little too slow for the field day race.
Her momma's waitin' at the finish line
to wipe the teardrops from her eyes.
She says, "You did just fine, honey,
that's okay. Sometime's life's just that way.
You're gonna lose the race from time to time,
but you're always gonna find:
You can't lose me.
Bet your life.
I am here and I will always be
just a wish away.
Wherever you go,
no matter how far,
my love is where you are.
You won't be lost if you believe
you can't lose me."
Momma used to say "Girl it won't be long
'til it's time to go out on your own.
Chase your dreams, find your place in life.
I know you'll do just fine."
When that day finally came,
there were things she needed to but could not say
so I whispered softly as I wiped the tears from momma's eyes,
"You can't lose me.
Bet your life.
I am here and I will always be
just a wish away.
Wherever I go,
no matter how far,
my love is where you are.
You won't be lost if you believe
you can't lose me."
Wherever you go,
no matter how far,
my love is where you are.
You won't be lost if you believe
you can't lose me.
No, you can't lose me.
(bet your life)
Wherever you go
(no matter how far)
My love is where you are.
(you can't lose me.)
ooh, you can't lose me
(You can't lose me)
No, you can't lose me
