Dreaming of Tomorrow's Light

[Intro]
Soft whispers in the night, a lullaby so sweet,
Holding you close, making memories complete.
[Verse 1]
As I hold you snug and warm against my chest,
I gaze at your little hands and feet, it's the best.
I rock slowly, close my eyes and dare to dream,
Of all the wonders waiting in life's flowing stream.
[Pre-Chorus]
What will you be at two years old, oh little star?
Toddling 'round, giggles echoing from afar.
Your bright brown eyes glisten, reaching for the trees,
Innocent curiosity, like a soft summer breeze.
[Chorus]
Oh, little one, you’re my heart’s sweetest song,
In this world of dreams, it’s where we both belong.
From tiny footsteps to running free,
You’re the love of my life, my joy, my melody.
[Verse 2]
At five years old, clinging tight to my leg,
"Mommy, please don’t go!" as our world sways and begs.
I whisper softly, "It’s alright, dear, don’t fear,
I’ll be right here waiting, always near."
[Pre-Chorus]
What will you be at ten, so smart and so bold?
With dreams of exploring the stories untold.
So independent, ready to find your way,
With a heart full of wonder, come what may.
[Chorus]
Oh, little one, you’re my heart’s sweetest song,
In this world of dreams, it’s where we both belong.
From tiny footsteps to running free,
You’re the love of my life, my joy, my melody.
[Bridge]
Eighteen years flash by, as you take center stage,
Accepting your diploma, marking the age.
I ponder all the greatness that lies ahead,
Maybe saving lives with the words that you’ve said.
[Outro]
Opening my eyes, still rocking in embrace,
I look down and see those beautiful brown eyes, a trace.
In this moment, forever, our bond will hold tight,
My little dreamer, my heart's guiding light.
