Lyrics
You came to us in early morning
On the wings of September in the dawn
We've come undone
Our lives have now begun
A little stranger, yet familiar
Your eyes look like mine, your mama's in your face
but not the same
you wear it your own way
today and every day
And now we know our love has grown
This time is no longer our own
Joyous the day you came along
as you begin your song
The most innocent of wonder
Splashing puddles with such spirit in your eyes
It makes you smile
Rainy days are worth the while
And I want the best for you my child
May life give you everything it can afford
to give to you
May you always live your truth
Put your heart in your pursuits
And now we know our love has grown
This time is no longer our own
We're so glad you came along
as you begin your song
And now we know our love has grown
This time is no longer our own
We're so glad you came along
This life is all your song
