My Unborn Child
Oh how beautiful you are, yet still remain unseen
Your image dancing in my mind, tiny, peaceful and serene
I think about you more and more now, as the day grows near
What day I’m still unsure, sooner than later though you’ll be here
The doctors say your healthy, I shoulda known you’d be strong
I’ll admit I had my doubts, but I guess you knew it all along
There's this feeling in my stomach, this feeling eating at my heart
Yet I refuse to call It love, cuz in that word I disbelieve
So for now it will remain nameless, but forever it will be
Love is overused, I mean something real
A word that’s undefined, that’s how you make me feel
Your existence so unexpected, I shunned the very idea
But now that you are near, I’m overjoyed that you are here
I can’t wait to get to know you and you a chance to know me
There’s so many things I’ll show you, just you wait and see
But until you get here I’ll be waiting, oh so patiently
And when you do we’ll be celebrating, a new addition to the family
When you come out, you’ll be crying, shhh everything is alright
Mommy’s been with you baby, now daddy’s in your life
In you life I’ll stay, sweetie I promise, I’ll never go away
I don’t ever want to be separated, not even for a day
Your image dancing in my mind, tiny, peaceful and serene
I think about you more and more now, as the day grows near
What day I’m still unsure, sooner than later though you’ll be here
The doctors say your healthy, I shoulda known you’d be strong
I’ll admit I had my doubts, but I guess you knew it all along
There's this feeling in my stomach, this feeling eating at my heart
Yet I refuse to call It love, cuz in that word I disbelieve
So for now it will remain nameless, but forever it will be
Love is overused, I mean something real
A word that’s undefined, that’s how you make me feel
Your existence so unexpected, I shunned the very idea
But now that you are near, I’m overjoyed that you are here
I can’t wait to get to know you and you a chance to know me
There’s so many things I’ll show you, just you wait and see
But until you get here I’ll be waiting, oh so patiently
And when you do we’ll be celebrating, a new addition to the family
When you come out, you’ll be crying, shhh everything is alright
Mommy’s been with you baby, now daddy’s in your life
In you life I’ll stay, sweetie I promise, I’ll never go away
I don’t ever want to be separated, not even for a day
