For nine months I carried you for nine months I knew
I'd love you forever as inside me you grew
My dear little girl sweetest angel of all
I'll be here for you always whenever you call .
The day you were born I thanked heavens above
For giving me the most wonderful gift I could love
I looked in your eyes and you looked up at me
For one moment it was just us no one else could I see
I held your tiny hand and you gripped on to me tight
I lifted you in my arms you felt so light.
I held you close to me not wanting to let go
I couldn't imagine ever telling you no
Sweet daughter of mine what I'm trying to say
Is no one but a mother could ever feel this way
I'll protect you always as long as I live
There is nothing on this earth to you I'll not give
Til the day I die you will be my world
I will always be thinking of my little girl
And when I am buried I hope you will know
That I gave you all the love I could possibly show.
