I felt you before I saw the light,
Before I knew the sound of goodbye,
You only knew my heartbeat near,
My whispered love, my falling tears.
They say the world is wide and long,
But yours was held inside my arms,
Every breath, every silent prayer,
Two hours… but a lifetime there.
(Chorus)
For the two hours you lived, you were never alone,
You were wrapped in my voice, you were wrapped in my soul,
If love could keep time, you’d still be here,
But heaven borrowed you, my dear.
For the two hours you lived…
You only knew love.
(Verse 2)
I rocked you beneath the hospital glow,
Sang you sunshine soft and low,
Your tiny hands, your fragile sigh,
The bravest hello, the hardest goodbye.
If I could trade the stars above,
I’d give them all for one more touch,
But I believe you’re safe somehow,
Held by angels… I hold you now.
(Chorus)
For the two hours you lived, you were never alone,
You were wrapped in my heartbeat, carved into my bones,
No pain, no fear, just warmth and breath,
You only knew love — not death.
For the two hours you lived…
You only knew love.
(Bridge)
And someday when I’m tired and old,
When my hands can barely hold,
I’ll feel you near, I’ll know it’s true,
I didn’t lose you — I raised you, too.
You changed my heart, you changed my name,
I was your mama — that remains.
(Soft Chorus)
For the two hours you lived, I was yours, you were mine,
No clock could ever take that time,
Sleep now, my sweet, be free above,
Your first and last breath… was love.
(Outro)
Goodnight, my sunshine, rest your head,
Mama’s love isn’t finished yet,
I’ll carry you till we meet again…
My beautiful girl. My Evalina.
