(Verse 1)

Oh I was there, when you were born,

What a joy on that fine morn.

Took one look, then you cried,

So I gave you all my love.


(Verse 2)

Oh I was there, for your first words,

Little you, just like a bird.

Then you smiled, and I cried,

So I gave you all my love.


(Verse 3)

Oh I was there, for your first step,

And I knew, I’d seen nothing yet.

Pretty soon, you were grown,

And I gave you all my love.


(Verse 4)

Then you found, a love so true,

And it was, soon him and you.

Life to live, plans were made,

Then I gave you all my love.


(Verse 5)

Now it’s you, with a child so dear,

Little face, to bring you cheer.

And I know, all is right,

So I give you all my love.
