I remember when I was a little girl   Growin' up livin' in my own little world   So it seemed   I had my dolls and dreams      Mama was always there to comfort me   And her love   Wasn't nothin' quite like it   In the world that I knew of      Before I knew it   I was standing in my teens   Sweet little boy with his   Strong young arm holdin' me      I remember the first time I felt his kiss   Oh, it like to drove me crazy   And I remember sayin'   "I never felt nothin' like this"      So I went and asked mama   "Can you tell me what it means?"   And she said, "You're in love   And that's every little girls dream"      "Baby, what you've found   Is every little girls dream"      So I said, "Mama, does love ever last?"   She says, "Where by now let the future come to pass   Just understand and enjoy what you've found   And listen to it just as long as your heart is sound"      And love, there ain't nothin' quite like it   In the world anybody knows of   'Cause there are worlds all through my teens   Same little boy with his strong young arms lovin' me      I remember the first time I felt his kiss   Oh, it like to drove me crazy   And I remember sayin'   "I never felt nothin' like this"      I remember sayin' to mama   I know just what you mean   I'm in love, and that's every little girl's dream   Woah, what I found is every little girl's dream      And I found mine and mama says   "Me too baby, once upon a time   It lifts you up, but it lets you down   There'll be another dream to bring it back around"      There's something about the first time   That keeps you rememberin'   When you've found every little girl's dream      Every little girl's dream, I found   Every little girl's dream   (I remember the first time I felt his kiss)   Every little girl's dream   (I remember sayin' I never felt nothin' like this)      Every little girl's dream   (I found someone and I fell in love)   Every little girl's dream   (I remember sayin')   ("I never felt nothin' like this")
