Right from the start You won my whole heart You, living and breathing Here in my arms I'm watching you slumber Love come to life, Eyes like your mother's So tender and bright Seeing right through me In the new morning light You're like a flower That buds into bloom You open so gently And light up the room You've changed me completely Though you're so small Helplessly lying In my loving arms A lifetime is waiting But I'll keep you warm I'll sing of the wonder In sweet sweet surrender I'll sing under stars Holding you in my arms I'll sing till the whole world loves you the way that I do Oh the way that I do My baby my dear When you grow up you'll see Why babies need daddies And why you'll need me This world's not a far away fairy tale land I'll protect you from danger I'll be holding your hand We'll do this together Right till the end So to keep you from danger Keep you from falling Keep you from getting hurt Save you the trouble Of bleeding and healing And growing 'Cause life sometimes hurts For better or worse My baby my dear I wish it weren't true But the world and its sorrows will someday hurt you But know when you fall, I'll be there with you too To hold you and love you the way that I do
