I look down and watch you sleeping
At peace with the world about you
Listening to the sound of your breathing
I’m wondering whether you have a clue
Just how important you already are to me
And how much of our lives I have planned
To be full of happiness, love and true joy
As I’ll always be there to hold your hand

For I once wished upon a star up high
For someone very special for me to love
To hold and call them my true sweetheart
And delivered to me on the wings of a dove.
So God most graciously granted my wish
And sent one of his Angels to this earth
I knew he had answered my special prayer
When I held you moments after your birth
