When they told me I was gonna have a baby
A part of me went weightless
For the first time in my life
There's nothing I could say
It's like a miracle from the stars above
Paralyed with fear
I was ovee with love
They said"soon you'll hear the beating
Of an unborn heart
This is the answer
You've been searching for so hard"
And for the first time in my life felt
A wave of love so deep
As I listened for the unborn child's heart beat
I said something stupid like
"how are you feeling"
He smiled the warmest smile
I've ever seen
Oh I guess that said it all
Now we are a far cry from a storybook romance
Something in his eyes made me crumble
I reached out for his hand
He said"soon you'll hear the beating
Of an unborn heart
This is the answer
You've been searching for so hard"
And for the first time in my life felt
A wave of love so deep
As I listened for the unborn child's heart beat
Now we all know how crazy
This world can be sometimes
And I lie awake at night wonder
How a child suvives
Beyong the danger in the strangers
And the inhhumanity
Lord give us strength to someday find a world
That lives in peace
"Soon you'll hear the beating
Of an unborn heart
This is the answer
You've been searching for so hard"
And for the first time in my life felt
A wave of love so deep
As I listened for the unborn child's heart beat
And for the first time in our lives we felt
A wave of love so deep
As we listened for the unborn child's heart beat
Oh I can almost hear the beating
