I Held You Tight

I Saw you born, then I held you Tight, I knew I loved you straight away With your tiny hands and your tiny feet, your eyes not used to light I gazed upon your lovely face and i began to sway. I remember well when we first met When I held you in my arms even though you didn't know me yet there was no signal of alarm. The tears of joy I shed for you. They made me feel aglow. The happiness that sweet day brought A Love I had never known. From the first moment that you squeezed my hand and when you slept contentedly. I knew I Loved with all my heart and I knew that you Loved me. The years have passed and how you've grown never failing to surprise, but no matter how old or big you get You're my baby in my eyes.
