Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They say I lost a baby
But somehow it feels like more
I lost every day that should’ve followed
Every year we had in store
’Cause I’d already started wondering
Who you were going to be
Would you have Daddy’s eyes?
Would you look anything like me?
Would there be a dimple on your right cheek?
Would you be stubborn, sweet or wild?
There are so many things I’ll never know
About my little child
[Pre-Chorus]
And the questions keep on coming
Even though I know they’ll stay unanswered
Sometimes I let myself imagine
Just to have you for a little longer
[Chorus]
Would your little hand fit into mine?
Would you reach for me when you were tired?
Would I be the one you’d run to
When you needed somewhere safe to hide?
Would I know your favorite song?
Would I know just what could make you laugh?
I didn’t only lose a baby
I lost every moment we should’ve had
[Verse 2]
Would I hate those sleepless nights
Like everybody says you do?
Or would I secretly love three a.m.
If three a.m. meant holding you?
Would you fall asleep against my chest?
Would I watch you just to see you breathe?
Would I complain about being tired
Then miss you the second you fell asleep?
What would that last hour sound like
Before we said goodnight?
Me tickling those chubby little toes
While you kicked with all your might
One more cuddle, one more story
One more kiss before the light
Those ordinary little moments
I would give anything to have tonight
[Chorus]
Would your little hand fit into mine?
Would you reach for me when you were tired?
Would I be the one you’d run to
When you needed somewhere safe to hide?
Would I know your favorite song?
Would I know just what could make you laugh?
I didn’t only lose a baby
I lost every moment we should’ve had
[Bridge]
I grieve the baby I lost
And the child I never knew
The first steps I never witnessed
The birthdays we won’t get to do
Your first day of school
Your first broken heart
Teaching you to drive
Watching you grow up
Even all the times
You would’ve driven me mad
It hurts to miss a lifetime
We never got to have
[Final Chorus]
Maybe you’d have Daddy’s eyes
And that dimple on your right cheek
Maybe your little hand in mine
Would’ve been my favorite thing
Maybe I’d hate those sleepless nights
Then wish that time would just slow down
Maybe I’d know exactly who you were
Instead of wondering who you’d be now
I didn’t only lose a baby
I lost every tomorrow too
And I’ll spend a lifetime wondering
About the life I’d have had with you
[Outro]
There was so much love waiting
For a life that never came
I only had you for a moment
But I’ll always know your place.
