| For five months and eight days my wife and I had waited
|
| Gettin' ready for our baby girl
|
| But when he called the doctor said I need to see you
|
| And could you come in soon
|
| Then something died inside of me to sit with him and hear
|
| The tests that said our baby may not live to be a year
|
| Then turnin' to my wife and he said «whata you wanna do?»
|
| And she said…
|
| I wanna give her the world
|
| I wanna hold her hand
|
| I wanna be her mom for as long as I can
|
| And I wanna live every moment until that day comes
|
| I wanna show her what it means to be loved
|
| So we spent each day, watchin' every minute
|
| And prayin' for our baby girl
|
| And I will not forget the way I felt that moment
|
| When she came into this world
|
| But they took her from the room just as soon as she was born
|
| And watchin' through a window I could see her holdin' on
|
| When a voice inside me said…
|
| I wanna give her the world
|
| I wanna be her dad
|
| I wanna hold her close for as long as I can
|
| And I wanna live every moment until that day comes
|
| I wanna show her what it means to be loved
|
| I said everyday
|
| We’ve got to bring her home
|
| She’s been out to prove the doctors wrong
|
| Oh and you should see her now
|
| She’s as pretty as her mom
|
| And theres a boy at the front door waiting just to take her to her high school
|
| prom…
|
| And he wants to give her the world
|
| Wants to hold her hand
|
| And someday she may get a wedding band
|
| But she’s gunna live every moment until that day comes
|
| And we’re gunna show her what it means to be loved
|
| Oh yeah (what it means to be loved)
|
| Show her what it means to be loved
|
| What it means to be loved |
