                From the smile on your lips, to your beautiful eyes -

                  With your soft golden hair, you'd soon win a prize.

                I know that I'm prejudiced, because you are mine,

                  But Baby you're beautiful, I think you're divine.

                 

                As I move round the room, your eyes following me -

                  You're absorbing the new things you're able to see.

                You've come into this world and just captured my heart

                  And I knew this would happen right from the start.

                 

                Now Baby you're growing - you'll soon be a child,

                  Your charms are enchanting, my heart is beguiled

                You toddle to me for a kiss and embrace -

                  How can I resist such a dear little face?

                 

                You're studying pictures and learning new words -

                   You're playing on swings and pointing to birds.

                You're tottering round on your unsteady feet -

                  You're such fun to be with, and so very sweet.

                 

                You're a beautiful baby, but I've said that before -

                  But I shouldn't say "Baby", for now you are four.

                Your school and your friends will soon take up your time -

                  But never forget Baby you'll always be mine.
