small bump

you're just a small bump unborn

in four months you're brought to life

you might be left with my hair

but you'll have your mother's eyes

i'll hold your body in my hands

be as gentle as i can

but for now you're a scan of my unmade plans

a small bump

in four months you're brought to life

i'll whisper quietly

i'll give you nothing but truth

if you're not inside me

i'll put my future in you

you are my one and only

you can wrap your fingers 'round my thumb and hold me tight

oh

you are my one and only

you can wrap your fingers 'round my thumb and hold me tight

and you'll be alright

oh

you're just a small bump unknown

you'll grow into your skin

with a smile like hers

and a dimple beneath your chin

fingernails the size

of a half grain of rice

and eyelids closed to be soon opened wide

a small bump

in four months you'll open your eyes

and i'll hold you tightly

i'll tell you nothing but truth

if you're not inside me

i'll put my future in you

you are my one and only

you can wrap your fingers 'round my thumb and hold me tight

oh

you are my one and only

you can wrap your fingers 'round my thumb and hold me tight

and you'll be alright

and you can lie with me

with your tiny feet

when you're half asleep

i'll leave you be

right in front of me

for a couple weeks

so i can keep you safe

'cause you are my one and only

you can wrap your fingers 'round my thumb and hold me tight

you are my one and only

you can wrap your fingers 'round my thumb and hold me tight

and you'll be alright

'cause you were just a small bump unborn

for four months then torn from life

maybe you were needed up there

but we're still unaware as why
