The song that guided me through the fire of my early days
Through the blood, and through all the broken tears
There was a voice that pierced the screams with tenderness
There was a song within me all those years

"Baby you will never be alone
Baby you've got so much strength inside you
Baby don't cry
Just close your pretty little eyes
Baby I'm right there, right beside you"

And in my heart that song was all that kept my soul alive
It was all the beauty I could find in the world
There were scars, there were nights I sang the tears away
I didn't know the song but my heart could feel the words

"Baby you will never be alone
Baby you've got so much strength inside you
Baby don't cry
Just close your pretty little eyes
Baby I'm right there, right beside you"

And then came the day I found the voice that had sung to me
And your beautiful green eyes, and your heart, my spirit's home
And my heart beating against yours was the awkward harmony
To the song I heard within you, the song I'd always known

"Baby you were never alone
Can you feel the strength growing inside you?
Baby let me hold you, baby I love you
There's no need to cry
Baby look into my eyes
And listen to my heart beat, I'm beside you"
