Dear Little One

You lift our hearts over mountains and brighten up our rainy days
It's true, without you I'm drowning
Your life gives me breath to escape
Dear little one, our first little bump
Wrote this for you, hope you listen when you're grown
Mom and [Bm]dad are proud, love you [A7more than you [A7could know
Find it hard to [C7]fathom that your blood is from our own
Yeah, such a beautiful life
You're about to [C7]live, we'll be [Am]there at your side
Every day and [Bm]every hour, every chapter you [A7write
Don't you [A7worry little one, you [A7are destined to [C7]fly
To the greatest of heights, your future is bright
Spread your wings little one, don't be [Am]scared of the flight
If you [A7need us we'll be [Am]here, we'll teach you [A7how to [C7]glide
In the end you'll be [Am]keeping us up at your side
Yeah, I hope you [A7live your dreams
And never be [Am]deceived by the ones that don't believe
Be the best that you [A7can be, you [A7mean the world to [C7]me
We love you [A7and [Bm]adore you [A7unconditionally
Little one, let's go back to [C7]the night
We found out you [A7were growing, cherish that all [Em]my [A]life
I could feel my [A]heart was [Am7]pounding from the shock and [Bm]surprise
Your mother fell into [C7]my [A]arms, we knew it was [Am7]time
Little one, yeah, we knew it was [Am7]time
Knew that this is it for [Dm7]us, this cemented our lives
Little one, yeah, one of a kind
Cannot wait to [C7]meet and [Bm]hold you [A7for [Dm7]your first little cry cause
You lift our hearts over mountains
And brighten up our ɾainy days
It's tɾue
Without you [A7I'm drowning
Your life gives me breath to [C7]escape
And if you [A7ever feel like [F]you're afraid
And you [A7need a hand [Bm]to [C7]hold
Then we'll be [Am]waiting for [Dm7]you
Without you [A7I'm drowning
Your life gives me breath to [C7]escape
Yeah, I can't wait for [Dm7]the days
I can show you [A7how to [C7]ɾide a bike or write your own name
To wave you [A7off at school and [Bm]hug you [A7after my [A]day
Or sing you [A7lullabies and [Bm]ɾead you [A7stories till late
Cause that is what a loving father should do
It's all [Em]the little things they do that plant the memories in you
You can buy them [A]all [Em]the presents for [Dm7]the love to [C7]get through
But love won't get through unless you're present there in the ɾoom
For that I promise you, I will always provide
All the love and [Bm]the affection [C7]you [A7deserve as a child
Always keep you [A7warm and [Bm]sheltered till the day that I die
Cause I know what it's like [F]to [C7]know your dad don't care you're alive
And that's pain, pain I'll never see you [A7going through
Whatever about ɾelationships, a kid's always a part of you
And that won't ever change, the life you [A7leave is going to
You put them [A]on [C7]this earth, so to [C7]them [A]your love you [A7owe it to
Yeah, I'll be [Am]there for [Dm7]it all
Every birthday, every Christmas or occasion [C7]that falls
For your first ever steps or when you're starting to [C7]crawl
And on [C7]your wedding day, standing at the altar tall
I'll be [Am]there, yeah, I'll be [Am]there till the end
You're the perfect little miracle that God did send
Little one I love you [A7now, this is the end
Till we meet each other soon [C7]I'll put down the pen cause
You lift our hearts over mountains
And brighten up our ɾainy days
