## Lyrics

**Verse**

You don't love it, and that's okay  
We'll keep it short, we'll find a way  
Ten happy seconds, then into my arms  
Strong little one, with a thousand charms  


**Chorus**

Strong little one, you're finding your might  
A push and a wobble, you're doing it right  
However you get there, whatever the door  
You're strong, little one, right down to the core  


**Verse**

Some days are easy, some days are steep  
Some end in giggles and some end in weep  
Either is fine, love, we're learning to grow  
Slow as we need to, and gentle and slow  


**Chorus**

Strong little one, you're finding your might  
A push and a wobble, you're doing it right  
However you get there, whatever the door  
You're strong, little one, right down to the core  


**Outro**

Strong little one  
Right down to the core
