For all the tears that have fallen
And all those yet to come
For the words that remain unspoken
And the songs that will remain unsung

For the baby girl we will never have
Or hold tight in our arms
The sleepless nights, the toddler years
All things we won’t get to complain about

We’ve watched you slipping through our hands
As the years they have gone by
And just like that we will never know
Would you have played guitar just like your dad, would you have had my eyes

For reasons we will never understand
You were just not meant to be
Our baby girl, our precious star
You will live on in our dreams
