The Way That I Do
Right from the start
You won my whole heart
You, living and breathing
Here in my arms
I'm watching you slumber
Love come to life,
Eyes like your mother's
So tender and bright
Seeing right through me
In the new morning light
You're like a flower
That buds into bloom
You open so gently
And light up the room
You've changed me completely
Though you're so small
Helplessly lying
In my loving arms
A lifetime is waiting
But I'll keep you warm
I'll sing of the wonder
In sweet sweet surrender
I'll sing under stars
Holding you in my arms
I'll sing till the whole world loves you the way that I do
Oh the way that I do
My baby my dear
When you grow up you'll see
Why babies need daddies
And why you'll need me
This world's not a far away fairy tale land
I'll protect you from danger
I'll be holding your hand
We'll do this together
Right till the end
So to keep you from danger
Keep you from falling
Keep you from getting hurt
Save you the trouble
Of bleeding and healing
And growing
'Cause life sometimes hurts
For better or worse
My baby my dear
I wish it weren't true
But the world and its sorrows will someday hurt you
But know when you fall, I'll be there with you too
To hold you and love you the way that I do
You won my whole heart
You, living and breathing
Here in my arms
I'm watching you slumber
Love come to life,
Eyes like your mother's
So tender and bright
Seeing right through me
In the new morning light
You're like a flower
That buds into bloom
You open so gently
And light up the room
You've changed me completely
Though you're so small
Helplessly lying
In my loving arms
A lifetime is waiting
But I'll keep you warm
I'll sing of the wonder
In sweet sweet surrender
I'll sing under stars
Holding you in my arms
I'll sing till the whole world loves you the way that I do
Oh the way that I do
My baby my dear
When you grow up you'll see
Why babies need daddies
And why you'll need me
This world's not a far away fairy tale land
I'll protect you from danger
I'll be holding your hand
We'll do this together
Right till the end
So to keep you from danger
Keep you from falling
Keep you from getting hurt
Save you the trouble
Of bleeding and healing
And growing
'Cause life sometimes hurts
For better or worse
My baby my dear
I wish it weren't true
But the world and its sorrows will someday hurt you
But know when you fall, I'll be there with you too
To hold you and love you the way that I do
