about

a lullaby I wrote for my baby while I was 36 weeks pregnant. re-recorded to celebrate her first birthday.

lyrics

I feel you moving
kicking, pushing
next to my heart
stretching, growing
next to my heart
I hope you know
how much you're loved

and as I sit here
waiting, praying
feeling your heart
beating, racing
next to my heart
I hope you know
how much you're loved

baby
you're not alone
next to my heart
I am your home

I feel you dreaming
resting, sleeping
next to my heart
dancing, playing
next to my heart
I hope you know
how much you're loved

this is the closest
we'll ever be
next to my heart
just you and me
close to my heart
I hope you know
how much you're loved

baby
you're not alone
next to my heart
this is your home

baby
you're not alone
close to our hearts
we are your home

I try to treasure
these fleeting moments
cuz I know
someday we'll be
growing apart
but you'll always be
close to my heart
please don't forget
how much you're loved

you'll always know
how much you're loved
