Verse 1
The summer sun was settin’ on a little country town,
When they laid you in my arms and my whole world turned around.
I looked down at those blue eyes and whispered your sweet name,
And not a single thing in my life was ever quite the same.
I rocked you on the front porch through the long and restless nights,
Sang old country lullabies underneath the porch light.
And every prayer I’d ever prayed seemed answered on that day,
The moment God gave me my little Adeline Rae.
Chorus
Oh, Adeline Rae, you’re the song my heart sings,
The answer to prayers and a million little dreams.
When the road gets rough and the skies turn gray,
You’ll always have your mama, Adeline Rae.
And if this old world ever leaves you feeling afraid,
Come back to my arms, sweet Adeline Rae.
Verse 2
I still see your muddy boots running through the yard,
Picking wildflowers and filling up Mason jars.
You’ve got a stubborn little spirit, Lord, you got that from me,
And a heart that’s full of kindness for everyone you meet.
Someday there’ll be a young man waiting at the gate,
And I’ll be fighting back the tears while pretending I’ll be okay.
But no matter where life takes you or how far away you roam,
You’ll always have a place right here to call your home.
Chorus
Oh, Adeline Rae, you’re the song my heart sings,
The answer to prayers and a million little dreams.
When the road gets rough and the skies turn gray,
You’ll always have your mama, Adeline Rae.
And if this old world ever leaves you feeling afraid,
Come back to my arms, sweet Adeline Rae.
Bridge
Years will roll by like tyres on an old dirt road,
The seasons will change and you’ll carry your own load.
But there’s one thing in this life that time can’t take away,
A mother’s love for her daughter, Adeline Rae.
Final Chorus
Oh, Adeline Rae, you’re the best part of me,
More precious than the sunset rolling over Victoria’s fields.
And when they tell the story of my life someday,
The greatest chapter’s always gonna be your name.
You’re my reason, my blessing, my amazing grace,
Forever and always, my Adeline Rae.
Outro
Yeah, when my hair turns silver and these hands show their age,
I’ll still thank the Lord above for my Adeline Rae.
