 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

It began with a whisper in my ear
"I think it's time"
Suddenly all we held dear was on the line
As your heart, measured in mountains
Fell and climbed
"You're okay, you're okay, you're okay
We’re okay" amen

We were changed in an instant
We became so much more
Our definition of perfect was written
When she was born

As she drew her first breath
I learned what love meant
And my heart reconciled
All the darkness and light inside my chest

As her hands held tight
And her eyes met mine
I saw the future unfold in silver and gold
And I’m already proud

Beautiful like your mother
You are grace, you are light
A better version of our best
From your starting line

We will learn from each other
As you grow up, we will too
In our reflections of one another
We will start something new
We were changed in an instant
We became so much more
Our definition of perfect was written
When you were born

There is so much to tell you
There is so much to see
We will show you the oceans
And everything in between

What a privilege to love you
To teach you all that we know
To watch you build a collection of dreams
That you can call your own

You are beautiful like your mother
You are grace, you are light
A better version of our best
From your starting line

We were changed in an instant
We became so much more
Our definition of perfect was written
When you were born
