This is a song I wrote for my daughters during their time in hospital.
lyrics
My cell phone rang at 9 am
And though I missed that call
I met you in the labour room
And there you were so small

They placed you in your mama's arms
The look upon your face
Was magical and lovable
Could never be replaced

Then the nurse came in and told us
That some things were out of line
Your sister she was coming
But you still needed time

So they wrapped you in a linen
And said you needed space
That is why your mom and I
Called you Maddie Grace

You are the candle in my life
That keeps me going strong
You are what keeps me shining in the dark
You're the reason why I feel the way that I feel now
And you are why I still believe in miracles

We took a breath and saw the clock
It's now 2:44
Your feet came first, not what we rehearsed
Running out the door
Your face was like a flower
Your little button nose
And that is why your mom & I called you Mila Rose

You are the candle in my life
That keeps me going strong
You are what keeps me shining in the dark
You're the reason why I feel the way that I feel now
And you are why I still believe in miracles

You never ever leave my mind
My sweet sweet Madeline
When I look into your deep blue eyes
I feel like i'm alive

Whenever you're afraid
Or whatever choices made
Remember there's a God above
Who loves you just the same

You are the candle in my life
That keeps me going strong
You are what keeps me shining in the dark
You're the reason why I feel the way that I feel now
And you are why I still believe in miracles
You're why I believe in miracles
You're why I believe in miracles
