I still remember how it felt to walk down the aisle
heart hammering in my chest
wearing my mother's wedding dress
then looking up to see his smile
we made our vows, for worse or better
and sealed it with a sweet kiss
nothing could be better than this
but life always brings stormy weather
and nothing seemed to go our way
we loved, we fought, we laughed and cried
but somehow we still stayed by each other's side
and we dreamed of a better day.
one day two little pink lines changed our lives
everything was crazy but everything was alright
nine short months later on a crazy night
and I became mommy and not just a wife
I sat in a hospital feeling total bliss
a baby with my smile and her daddy's eyes
I felt more love than I thought I had inside
and I thought nothing could be better than this.
that baby grew up in just a blink of an eye
and the world seemed to change
things turned hectic and wonderful and strange
we thought we were happy, we were fine
but we feel a deep longing inside.
it's strange to miss someone who doesn't exist
strange to be sad when you should feel bliss
but today we saw those two little lines
and the world makes sense once more
something great is in store
I don't know what will happen but it'll be fine
I already can't wait to greet you with a kiss
just know you're loved more than you can dream
you and your sister are our everything
nothing can be better than this.
