Baby

Hey beautiful child, I know those eyes

I once had them but they turned to lies

Just like the summer, they gone bad

There's that one thing I never had

It's that beautiful lip your mama gave you

And all her kisses make it better

Watching you eat, we could do this forever

I sure hope I'm the man of the hour

But you will have flowers and pearls

And all those moons and all those birds

And they'll be singing

Oh baby, I'll hold you in my arms and dance for a while

I'd really like to dance with you

I'd really like to see my baby smile

Hold you in my arms and dance

It'll never be enough for you

And it's so hard for me 'cause I try to

Watching you step to your very first friend

We hold our breath as we fall in love again

And you're lying on the floor drawing funny little lines

Before we know that we keep our sides

It's that beautiful wit, I hope you handle it

They fire arrows to try and pin you down

And I know you've got to leave town

And I couldn't do this forever

And I know you're the man of the hour

You gave us love, you gave us flowers and pearls

And all those moons and all those birds

And they'll be singing

Oh baby, I'll hold you in my arms and dance for a while

I'd really like to dance with you

I'd really like to see my baby smile

Hold you in my arms and dance

It'll never be enough for you

And it's hard for me 'cause I try to

It will never be enough for you

And it's so hard for me 'cause I try to

And it's so hard for me 'cause I try to
