Lyrics

When My Baby Sings (Singer/Songwriter)

When my baby sings
I can feel the flutter of angel's wings
And I know right then and there
Heaven ain't far away

It's a magical thing
There's an awesome power in the gift she brings
She finds a voice down deep in her soul
When she hears the music play

I have felt true hunger and emptiness
The long cold shadows of loneliness
I have done my time as a prisoner of all these things
But she banishes the darkness with her healing light
A weight is lifted and my soul takes flight
And I know I'll be alright
When my baby sings

When my baby smiles
I forget about the heartaches and the wasted miles
That I traveled in search of something
My mind could not yet define

But now she lights up my heart
And I know what I've been after from the very start
She's the answer to the question
I thought I would never find

I have yearned for something that I just couldn't touch
Something I'd never seen but yet I missed much
Now I see my dream with my eyes open wide
All those years I spent just going in reverse
Who understands the mysteries of the universe?
But I know I've broken the curse
When my baby smiles
