What It Means To Be Loved · letra

For five months and eight days my wife and I had waited Gettin' ready for our baby girl But when he called the doctor said I need to see you And could you come in soon Then something died inside of me to sit with him and hear The tests that said our baby may not live to be a year Then turnin' to my wife and he said "whata you wanna do?" And she said...
I wanna give her the world I wanna hold her hand I wanna be her mom for as long as I can And I wanna live every moment until that day comes I wanna show her what it means to be loved
So we spent each day, watchin' every minute And prayin' for our baby girl And I will not forget the way I felt that moment When she came into this world But they took her from the room just as soon as she was born And watchin' through a window I could see her holdin' on When a voice inside me said...
I wanna give her the world I wanna be her dad I wanna hold her close for as long as I can And I wanna live every moment until that day comes I wanna show her what it means to be loved
I said everyday We've got to bring her home She's been out to prove the doctors wrong Oh and you should see her now She's as pretty as her mom And theres a boy at the front door waiting just to take her to her high school prom...
And he wants to give her the world Wants to hold her hand And someday she may get a wedding band But she's gunna live every moment until that day comes And we're gunna show her what it means to be loved
Oh yeah (what it means to be loved)
Show her what it means to be loved What it means to be loved
