I have known her, since the time that time began
I have seen her from before the day her mother met her dad
When she’s beside me, she helps me find the key
This piano never sounds the way it sounds when she’s with me

She’ll be perfection, when she sleeps and when she cries
I can think about forever now, I’ve seen it in her mother’s eyes
And on her forehead, I will place my lips
And kiss her ‘til the sandman comes
And carries her to sleepy bliss

Those precious little fingers on my knee
Remind me that life’s in a major key

She’s still out there, with Orion in the sky
She’s coming very soon I know I hear the lullaby
We’re not alone now, no we could never be
We’ll always have each other, ‘cause one and one and one is three

Those precious little fingers on my knee
Remind me that life’s in a major key

 Preparing a way for an unborn child
Perfecting a love for an unborn child
Resurrecting my faith
Preparing a way for this child

She’ll be perfection, when she sleeps and when she cries
I can think about forever now, I’ve seen it in her mother’s eyes
And on her forehead, I will place my lips
And kiss her ‘til the sandman comes
And carries her to sleepy bliss

Those precious little fingers on my knee
Remind me that life’s in a major key

Key of G
