Couplet 1

I remember the first time
You wrapped your tiny hand
In mine
How could I forget

Couplet 2

I held you there upon my chest
Heart to heart and breath to breath
How could I forget

Refrain

Before I held you
I knew I loved you
Before I saw you
I was sold out for you
I was writing lullabies
Before I ever heard your cry
I’ve been here the whole time
You always have You always will be mine

Couplet 3

Step by not so steady step
Holding up your arms again
How could I forget

Couplet 4

It wasn’t when you got it right
I was cheering all the time
I will be ‘til the end

Refrain

Before I held you
I knew I loved you
Before I saw you
I was sold out for you
I was writing lullabies
Before I ever heard your cry
I’ve been here the whole time
You always have You always will be mine

Refrain modifié

You’re mine

Pont

I’m not too busy
I’m not in a hurry
Slow down just breathe
And lean right into me

Refrain

Before I held you
I knew I loved you
Before I saw you
I was sold out for you
I was writing lullabies
Before I ever heard your cry
I’ve been here the whole time
You always have You always will be mine

Couplet 5

And through the nights when you’re afraid
I will be your safest place
I will lift your head
And I won’t let you forget
