If before my baby’s grown

It comes my time to go

And it’s before I get a chance To tell her all I know

Make sure to tell her everyday

How much she means to me

How she’s my every waking thought

And every breath I breathe

How I think of her a million times

Before each day is over

That my love is never ending, ever growing

Please promise, please tell her

Never a thought passes through

That doesn’t circle back to

The little who has my heart

And holds my love so true

If I’m not here to guide her

Please help her understand

She’ll carry me within her heart

And I’ll always hold her hand

If before my baby’s grown

It comes my time to go

And it’s before I get a chance to tell her all I know

Tell her what she means to me

How very much I love her

That my love is never ending, ever growing

Please promise, please tell her
