Listen, Daddy Loves You

Come listen very carefully there's something you should know Even in my tummy, your daddy loved you so He'd sing to you and talk to you Get close so you could hear He'd say how much he wanted you and always would be near He'd tell you lots of stories about happy things and us Fairy tales and made up verse words you'd know to trust He gave you your first stuffie it was his from way back when It was old but very lovable, because You both would need a friend He went through the house, looking high and low any dangers you might find Happy to do, anything for you because he is so kind First, we saw your ultrasound The picture, so unclear Your Daddy caught a glimpse of you Sweet baby. Oh, so dear He held me close, leaned into you whispering with such grace "I Love You and can't wait to see...you and that beautiful face" We waited months for you, and mommy's tummy grew Then your day came with a mighty force You were ready to come out to greet the world To find out who...Who? Promised you that horse.
