My precious

Jodie Wood 1971 (Jhb)



As you were inside of me
My love grew and grew
It's you I wanted to see
This was all so very new

A rollercoaster of emotions
Tears, joy and love
You were my devotion
A blessing from above

My tummy started to grow
Each and every day
I wanted you to know
You were here to stay

You were my beautiful baby
I sung you lallabyes
Life was really crazy
You were my blessed surprise

I couldn't wait to see you
My little angel girl
If you only really new
As precious as a pearl

You changed my life my treasure
A love so very true
No love could ever measure
Your Mama's love for you
