Verse 1
If you could see where you are now
I think my heart might finally rest
You’re wrapped in arms that know your name
Held so softly, held so blessed
My daddy’s there with open hands
Smiling like he used to do
Jordan’s nana rocking you slow
All the love we ever knew
Pre-Chorus
Every animal I helped cross the line
Waiting just to keep you safe
Gentle souls with knowing eyes
There to guard you day and night
Chorus
You are never alone, my baby girl
Never scared, never cold
You will never carry the pain
That your mama and daddy had to hold
No needles, no fear, no goodbye
No nights where you break and cry
Heaven made sure of one sweet thing—
You’ll only ever know love
Verse 2
You won’t know hospitals or the ache
Of prayers whispered through tears
You won’t feel the heaviness
Of shattered dreams or shattered years
You won’t know how my heart caved in
The moment I had to let you go
Because heaven was kinder than this world
And it wanted you whole
Pre-Chorus
So I carry the hurt so you don’t have to
I will bear what you were spared
Every tear I cry is proof
Of how deeply you are loved
Chorus
You are never alone, my precious child
Never lost, never afraid
You are wrapped in wings and lullabies
While we stay back here and ache
You won’t know the weight we feel
Or how hard it is to breathe
Because love chose mercy that day
And carried you gently away from the pain
Bridge
Every night I hold your teddy bear
Close against my chest
And I pretend just for a moment
That it’s you I’m holding next
I cry your name into the dark
Where only God can hear
Asking Him to rock you softly
When I can’t be near
Chorus (soft, breaking)
Mama cries so you don’t have to
Daddy grieves so you stay free
We walk through hell so you never know
How cruel this world can be
If love could have kept you here
You’d still be in my arms
But heaven promised something better—
You would never come to harm
Outro
So sleep, my purple butterfly
Surrounded by the purest light
With grandpa’s laugh and nana’s song
And tiny paws curled by your side
We miss you more than words can say
And love you past all time and space
Until the day I get to hold you
I’ll carry you… in every breath
