A Song for My Girl

I have finally found the most perfect lyrics for my someday-girl. I like to find songs for my babes that are, in my mind, all them. I haven't yet found the perfect on for my boy, although the one I always think of for him is a Shawn MacDonald rap, which always, without fail, brought him peace, even as a little shmoo. The lyrics are not about him, but I still think of it as his. This one though, is all about my girl. When I sing it, it makes my heart swell to think I'll sing it to her in my arms one day.

Lullaby by the Dixie Chicks

They didn't have you where I come from

Never knew the best was yet to come

Life began when I saw your face

And I hear your laugh like a serenade

How long do you want to be loved

Is forever enough, is forever enough

How long do you want to be loved

Is forever enough

Cause I'm never, never giving you up

I slip in bed when you're asleep

To hold you close and feel your breath on me

Tomorrow there'll be so much to do

So tonight I'll drift in a dream with you

How long do you want to be loved

Is forever enough, is forever enough

How long do you want to be loved

Is forever enough

Cause I'm never, never giving you up

As you wander through this troubled world

In search of all things beautiful

You can close your eyes when you're miles away

And hear my voice like a serenade

How long do you want to be loved

Is forever enough, is forever enough

How long do you want to be loved

Is forever enough

Cause I'm never, never giving you up

How long do you want to be loved

Is forever enough, is forever enough

How long do you want to be loved

Is forever enough

Cause I'm never, never giving you up

Is forever enough

Cause I'm never, never giving you up
