My baby don’t cry
She just sleeps through the night
She don’t fuss, she don’t wine
She stays perfectly quiet

But while I watch her grow
My poor heart grows a hole
Oh, lord say it ain’t so can’t you please make an exception
I’ve got good intentions
I just crave protection
For my ball of perfection

Why can’t you stop time?
How long before I can’t call you my
Sweet little girl
Help me stop time
You’re not allowed to be 19
You have to stay my precious baby

(No more, no more)
No more birthdays
(No more, no more)

My baby’s just fine
She knows all of her rhymes
Her tables and her times
The world claps when she smiles

I know she’ll never swap tiaras for makeup
She’s a good girl at heart
I’ll find a magical potion
To mix with her lotion
And she’ll stay my princess for life

Why can’t you stop time?
How long before I can’t call you my
Sweet little girl
Help me stop time
You’re not allowed to be 19
You have to stay my precious baby

(No more, no more)
No more birthdays
(No more, no more)
No more birthdays
