My Baby is Having Her Baby (LYRICS)
(CHORUS)
Just yesterday
I stared into your newborn eyes
you’re going to be a mother soon
Just yesterday I kissed your forehead
and soothed your baby cries
you’ll feel that love I feel for you
but you’re giving me the greatest gift
Because I now get to feel that love for two
(VERSE 1)
Watching you grow into
the woman you are today
has been my deepest joy
you carry your baby as I carried you
it’s an indescribable love
I’m grateful you get to experience
and go through
when you look into your baby’s eyes
remember
that’s how I’ll always feel for you
(PRE CHORUS)
My baby is having a baby
we’ll never be apart
this love you have inside
now rests in both our hearts
(CHORUS)
Just yesterday
I stared into your newborn eyes
you’re going to be a mother soon
Just yesterday I kissed your forehead
and soothed your baby cries
you’ll feel that love I feel for you
but you’re giving me the greatest gift
Because I now get to feel that love for two
(VERSE 2)
I’ll always be your lighthouse
as you embark on motherhood
I will carry you on those days
when things are not as good
but you’ve got this
you’re a woman I look up to
who’s traveled a long way
your beautiful baby is lucky
to be held in your embrace
and when your arms get tired
I’ll step in and save your place
(PRE CHORUS)
My baby is having a baby
we’ll never be apart
this love you have inside
now rests in both our hearts
(BRIDGE)
When you stare into your baby’s eyes
the way I looked at you
you’ll feel both fear and faith
and wonder what to do
you’ll understand what it truly means
to love beyond this life
you’ll look at me with knowing eyes
there’ll be no need to speak
you’ll get to feel the greatest love,
it’s a secret mother’s keep
there won’t be any words
to describe your heart that day
but when you look at me
I’ll understand what you can’t say
(OUTRO CHORUS)
My baby is having a baby
we’ll never be apart
this love we share together
Rests forever in both our hearts
THE STORY BEHIND THE LYRICS
HER BABY IS HAVING A BABY: In the quiet afternoon light, a mother and her daughter sit together on the sofa. The daughter rests her hand gently on her rounded belly, a quiet wonder crossing her face as she looks toward the future. Reaching out, the mother takes her daughter’s hands in her own. “Just yesterday I was soothing your baby cries,” she says softly. “And now my baby is going to be a mother soon.”
“How do you love someone this much?” the daughter whispers, her eyes bright with tears.
“You are about to feel a love so deep it takes your breath away,” the mother replies. “And you are giving me the greatest gift, because my heart gets to feel that love for two. I love this little one already, because this child is a piece of you.”
Leaning in closer, the mother offers a steady anchor for the days ahead. “On the hard nights, when you are tired and running on empty, I will be your lighthouse. Whenever you need a break just call, I’ll be right there.”
The mother holds her daughter’s gaze, speaking of a profound truth yet to come. “When you hold your baby for the very first time, words won’t touch it. It goes beyond this life, beyond the universe. You will feel fear and faith all at once. And when you look at me across the room with knowing eyes, there will be no need to speak. I will already understand. It is the greatest secret that mothers keep.”
