I Get To See My Baby
Journey of Love: Embracing Parenthood's Wonder
Lyrics
For so many years
Reflecting on the past, acknowledging the passage of many years.
It was only me and you
Highlighting a long-standing relationship between the speaker and someone else.
Never thinking of a number that is slightly more than two
Not considering the possibility of expanding their family beyond two people.
Lost count of times I told you
Expressing repeated affirmations of love and commitment.
I'm glad you're on my team
Grateful for the support and partnership of the other person.
But drafting a new member seemed like nothing but a dream
Mentioning the dream-like nature of considering adding a new member to their family.
On a Friday night in Austin at an Irish bar on 6th
Setting the scene in Austin, recalling a specific Friday night at an Irish bar on 6th Street.
After several double whiskeys well we started talking kids
Sharing a pivotal moment after consuming double whiskeys when the topic of having children arises.
By the time we got to Memphis we were certain, we were sure
By the time they reach Memphis, they are certain about their decision to expand their family.
I don't think there's a chance that I could love you any more
Expressing an overwhelming love, believing it cannot be surpassed.
I get to see my baby
Anticipation and joy about the upcoming meeting with their baby.
(Tonight) I get to see my baby
Reiterating the excitement of seeing their baby tonight.
(Yesterday) I got to see my baby
Reflecting on the previous day when they got to see their baby.
I can't wait to meet my baby
Expressing eagerness to meet the baby in the future.
But nothing's simple
Acknowledging that the journey is not without challenges.
No matter how we tried
Despite efforts, recognizing the complexity of the situation.
I was sure that there was something going on with me inside
Personal concern about something happening internally, possibly related to fertility.
Don't practice no religion
Stating a lack of religious affiliation but facing a situation that challenges personal beliefs.
But it tested all my faith
Referencing a moment that tested the speaker's faith, likely related to fertility issues.
Til you came into the bedroom with that smile on your face
A positive turning point in the bedroom, symbolized by the partner's smile.
The stars are all aligned. The dice are rolling like they should
Describing a positive alignment of circumstances, feeling fortunate and in control.
There's nothing in the world that's gonna stop me feeling good
Confidently asserting that nothing will hinder the speaker's positive emotions.
Got my hand up tight against you so I can feel him kick
Experiencing the physical connection with the baby, feeling the kicks and bonding.
And whisper to him 'Baby, well I'll see you in a bit'
Expressing anticipation and love for the baby, promising to see them soon.
And that little bitty heart beat there on the screen
Describing the heartwarming moment of seeing the baby's heartbeat on a screen.
Was just about the cutest thing my eyes had ever seen
Highlighting the overwhelming cuteness of the baby's heartbeat.
In the world
Reiterating the significance of the baby in the world.
Yeah in the world
Affirming the baby's importance in the world.
