Todays Child
the first day you entered this world
my eyes looked you over
my first thought in mind was who is this child
what kind of live will it lead must i see
be it good or bad you are apart of me
you are open for suggestion but will you take head
i promise protection trust me you'll see
hands off or its de fending i must do cause your life is my
responsibility no other understand our
bond yes its quit different and
unique God gave you to me for
just a little while i must take care of you
the best way i know how its not your father or
another but your mother who is talking to you baby hear my voice
through and through let it be a recording
and voice you'll never forget while on this earth
we'll have a bond a tight and true one that started while
you were in my womb love love love you
baby all your tender bones fingers and toes I see you off to
the first day of school and be there when you graduate from the last
day if you choose don't be a
fool after all that is not what i intended for my little spool
