| Hey beautiful child, I know those eyes
|
| I once had them but they turned to life
|
| Just like the summer day gone bad
|
| There’s that one thing I never had
|
| It’s that beautiful lip your mama gave you it
|
| 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 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 will 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 lying on the floor, drawing funny little lines
|
| Before we know, there’ll be keep out signs
|
| It’s that beautiful width, I hope you handle it
|
| They fire arrows to try and pin you down
|
| And I know you gotta 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 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 will 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 |
