A Song For My Unborn Child
By: John Dawson
Rest assured I will greet you
when the morning comes.
Rest assured I will kiss you
when the daylight's done.
With me here you're not so all alone.
With me here you're not so all alone.
Rest assured, for all it gives you,
the world can take as much.
Rest assured, it can't take from you
what's given you in love.
Though my love for you is yours and yours alone.
remember: love freely shown is freely grown.
Now I know that this
conversation is
more than a few years away.
But it'll break my heart
if those years come and go
and I'm just left with a list
of things that I meant to say.
Rest assured I'll try to teach you
whither you have come.
Rest assured I'll try to teach you
whither you can go.
I'll be here, don't you be afraid to roam.
'cause I'll be here when you find your way back home.
Rest assured I will greet you as long as mornings come.
Rest assured that I will love you
until my days are done.
Remember that you're not so all alone.
Remember that when you feel all alone.
