When she told me
|
She was gonna have a baby
|
A part of me went weighless
|
For the first time in my life
|
There was nothing I could say
|
It's like a miracle from the stars above
|
Paralized with fear
|
I was overcome with love
|
|
She said soon you'll hear the beating
|
Of an unborn heart
|
This is the answer
|
You've been searching for so hard
|
And for the first time in my life I felt
|
The wave of love so deep
|
As I listened for the unborn child's heartbeat
|
|
I said something stupid like, how are you feeling
|
She smiled the warmest smile I've ever seen
|
Ohhh, I guess that said it all
|
Now were a far cry from the storybook romance
|
Something in her eyes, made me crumble
|
I reached out for her hand
|
|
|
|
She said soon, you'll hear the beating
|
Of an unborn heart
|
This is the answer
|
You've been searching for so hard
|
And for the first time in my life I felt
|
The wave of love so deep
|
As I listened for the unborn child's heartbeat
|
|
Now we all know how crazy
|
This world can be sometimes
|
And I lie awake at night and wonder
|
How a child survives
|
Beyond the danger in the strangers
|
And the inhumanity
|
Lord give us strength to someday find a world that lives in peace
|
|
Ohhh
|
|
Soon, you'll hear the beating
|
Of an unborn heart
|
This is the answer
|
You've been searching for so hard
|
And for the first time in my life I felt
|
The wave of love so deep
|
As I listened for the unborn child's heartbeat
|
|
Ohhh, I can almost hear the beating...
