Lyrics
Song For You
Verse 1
I want to sing
A song for you, baby, but
I just can't find the words.
I want to sing
A song for you, baby, but
You know I just can't find the words.
Bridge
Well your life grew inside of me
And now you're sitting beside me!
Verse 2
You are so small and sweet
And soft and warm, baby, well,
What can I say that is new?
I only live
To watch you grow, baby
And your young life to help you through.
2nd Bridge
Well, you know I ain't no poet,
But my love for you
I want to show it!
I want to sing
A song for you, baby, but
I can't find the words,
You know I just can't find the words,
You know I just can't find the words.
