It Feels Like Yesterday- Alli Walker and Eric Paul

My boyfriend Eric and I wrote this song for my sister's wedding. Deidra and Marc Halbot married August 20th, 2011 in St. John's, Newfoundland. This song is written from the perspective of a mother. Thanks to Kayla for video taping it!

It Feels Like Yesterday

I remember the first time that I held you close
I knew from that moment I was in love
You looked like an angel sent from up above
The most beautiful girl I could dream of

I remember the day when I ran to the phone
I called your dad up and said hurry on home
You took your first steps on the dining room floor
Those are the moments I live for

(chorus)
You grew up so fast it feels like yesterday
When I'd read you a book until you'd fall asleep
Now it's your turn to write your life story
About how your fairytale came to be
And how you met the man of your dreams

I remember the hard times through your teenage years
When you were too cool to have me anywhere near
I knew that one day you'd look back and see
How hard it is raising a family

(chorus)
You grew up so fast it feels like yesterday
Now you're reading a book as your son falls asleep
Now it's your turn to tell your life story
And it starts with Marc on his knee
And now you're a bride to be

(instrumental)

(chorus)
You grew up so fast it feels like yesterday
Now you're saying your vows on your wedding day
Now it's your turn to start your family
Just remember about your dad and me
Don't forget your baby sister Alli
