about

For my beautiful first-born... and for the fears and struggles of mothers.

lyrics

Seeing you lying there while I stroke your hair
such burning love for you I can hardly bear.
And oh, what a tangle I feel; joy bursting out,
but fears gnaw away inside and fill me with doubt…

But I’m learning to let go of my cherished control
and dive, though the risks are so high
Coz there might be pain, but there’s so much more to gain
in loving you, loving you…

Feeling your clumsy kisses over my face
Chunky arms pressing in for lightning embraces.
I’ve never known such a sweetness in life
in being your mother and being your Dad’s wife…

Dreaming of days ahead when the tricky journey’s past,
weathered those stormy years, friend to friend at last.
Well that’s what I long for and it moves me to tears,
to beg the Father of Fathers to carry all my fears…
