Little Baby
Yearning for the Unseen: Donna Regina's Poignant Reflections
Lyrics
My sweet little baby
Yearning for the presence of the speaker's sweet baby
How i sometimes long
Expressing occasional strong desire or longing
To hold you close
Wishing to hold the baby close
To sing you a song
Desire to sing a soothing song for the baby
To hear you breathe
Longing to hear the baby's gentle breathing
To know that you are real
Seeking confirmation of the baby's reality
But it just happened to me
Unexpectedly realizing the absence of the baby
That my sweet little baby
Reiteration of affection for the absent baby
Will never be there
Acceptance that the baby will never be present
Sometimes i don't care
Expressing indifference at times
Sometimes i don't care
Repetition of occasional indifference
Sometimes i don't care
Emphasizing moments of apathy
Oh my precious little baby
Endearment towards the precious baby
How i sometimes want
Desire to witness matching eyes in the baby
To see my matching eyes
Expressing a wish to see one's reflection in the baby
Inside of yours
Seeking completeness through the baby's eyes
To feel complete
Yearning for a sense of wholeness with the baby
But it just happened to me
Realizing the absence of the precious baby
That my precious little baby
Acknowledging the perpetual absence of the baby
Will never be there
Indifference towards the baby's absence at times
Sometimes i don't care
Reiteration of occasional indifference
Sometimes i don't care
Emphasizing moments of apathy
Sometimes i don't care
Affirmation of lack of concern
I guess i don't care
Acknowledgment of a general lack of care
My dear little baby
Affectionate address to the dear baby
Though i'll never know
Coming to terms with not knowing certain details about the baby
The colour of your eyes
Expressing uncertainty about the baby's eye color
The sound of your song
Desire to hear the baby's unique song
I will get along
Confidence in coping despite the unknown
And i'm complete
Feeling complete in the absence of specific details
Though it just happened to me
Realizing and accepting life's unexpected turns
Just happened to me
Repetition emphasizing acceptance of life's unpredictability
Just happened to me
Final acknowledgment of life's unpredictable nature
