Pretty Little Baby

There’s a warmth in your hands that the seasons can’t fake

Like spring never left, like the world’s wide awake

I watch how you dream with your lips in a curl

And I swear you could soften the coldest of worlds

You sigh in your sleep and the silence feels sweet

Even time holds its breath just to not miss a beat

If love had a home, it would live in your smile

And I’d walk through forever to stay for a while

If the stars forget to shine

I’ll light ‘em one by one each night

And tell the moon, “She’s all I need”

Just her, just love, just you and me

You can ask the flowers

I sit for hours

Telling all the blue birds

The bill and coo birds

Pretty little baby

I’m so in love with you-

They sing it back, it must be true

Pretty little baby

I’m so in love with you

You dance like the wind through a curtain of gold

Like a story I’ve heard, but it never gets old

I trace every freckle like stars in a chart

And map out the galaxy stitched in your heart

Even when the years rush in

We’ll still be who we’ve always been

Two souls in a rhythm slow

Where every beat says, “Never let go”

You can ask the flowers

I sit for hours

Telling all the blue birds

The bill and coo birds

Pretty little baby

I’m so in love with you-

They sing it back, it must be true

Pretty little baby

I’m so in love with you

And if your heart ever needs a rest

Lay it down here on my chest

I’ll sing you home through skies or storms

You’ll always be where I belong

And when our hair turns silver gray

We’ll laugh at how we used to say—

“Forever’s far,” but look how near

It feels when I hold you right here

You can ask the flowers

I sit for hours

Telling all the blue birds

The bill and coo birds

Pretty little baby

I’m so in love with you-

They sing it back, it must be true

Pretty little baby

I’m so in love with you

Pretty little baby…

I’m so in love with you

Even the stars know it’s true…

I’m so in love with you.
