Breath of life, we’ve been waiting for your turn to breathe
Waiting in springtime
Through the breezes of summer, the colors of fall
Wait for you there
And the angels wait there too
All of Heaven waits for you
Say goodbye to the little one that nobody knows
I start to cry for the little one I’m longing to hold
I try to make sense of it but it seems I’ll never know
So I guess that I’ll just say goodbye for now
Until the day when I go home
Breath of life, I taste the teardrops that fall from my eyes
I will be waiting
In the garden, the flowers beginning to rise
I am still waiting…
But the angels are waiting too
And they’ll rejoice before we do
So say goodbye to the little one that nobody knows
I start to cry for the little one I’m longing to hold
I try to make sense of it but it seems I’ll never know
So I guess that I’ll just say goodbye for now
Until the day when I go home
I may never know all the world that’s around me
I might not understand all the feelings that have found me
I just know that I’ll let my Father’s love surround me
And hold me___ till I hold you
Breath of life we’ve been waiting for your turn to breathe...
So say goodbye to the little ones that nobody knows
I start to cry for the little ones I’m longing to hold
How could anybody ever choose to let one go?
Well, I guess that I’ll just say goodbye for now
Until the day when I go home
(To both of our little angels who never had the chance to breathe the air of this world, but who breathe freely the air of the next: I can’t wait to meet you. Love, Daddy.)
