As you lay sleeping (for my daughter)

You lay there in your crib
Looking up at me
Your big blue eyes
follow me across the scene
You give a little sigh
As I lift you in my arms
You have no idea
What I would do to keep you in my arms

Your smile lights my life
In a way I never knew
Your little fingers hold my hand
And everything seems alright

I hold you against my breast
and hear your small quiet breaths
And as you lay sleeping
In my arms so safe and sound
I know you are my world
You are what I revolve around
