Verse 1:
C G
I remember the day you were born, like yesterday,
Am F
Your tiny fingers wrapped around my thumb that way.
C G
I promised you then, I?d never let you go,
Am F
But life had other plans that I couldn?t know.
Pre-Chorus
Am G
I missed your first steps, missed your first words,
C F
Every little moment that I should?ve heard.
Am G
I know I?m far, but my love is near,
F G
Counting down the days until I?m here.
Am F
A year has passed since I held you tight,
C G
52 weeks of endless night.
Am F
365 days I?ve been so alone,
C G
Longing to bring my baby home.
Am F
8760 hours of missing your smile,
C G
525600 minutes that feel like miles.
Am F
No matter the time, no matter the world,
C G
You will always be my baby girl.
Verse 2:
C G
I think of you laughing, I picture your face,
Am F
I keep your photos in my favorite place.
C G
Through all the miles and time in between,
Am F
You?re the brightest light in every dream.
Pre-Chorus
Am G
I?ve missed birthdays, bedtime stories too,
C F
But not a day goes by I?m not missing you.
Am G
I?m counting down till we?re back where we belong,
F G
You and me, my love, right where we?re strong.
Am F
A year has passed since I held you tight,
C G
52 weeks of endless night.
Am F
365 days I?ve been so alone,
C G
Longing to bring my baby home.
Am F
8760 hours of missing your smile,
C G
525600 minutes that feel like miles.
Am F
No matter the time, no matter the world,
C G
You will always be my baby girl.
Bridge:
Am C
The seasons change, but my love stays true,
G F
Though I?m far away, I?m still singing for you.
Am C
Through every high and every low,
F G
I?m with you, more than you?ll ever know.
Am F
A year has passed since I held you tight,
C G
52 weeks of endless night.
Am F
365 days I?ve been so alone,

Longing to bring my baby home.

8760 hours of missing your smile,

525600 minutes that feel like miles.

No matter the time, no matter the world,

You will always be my baby girl.
Outro:
Am C
So here?s to the day we?ll meet again,

And I?ll hold you close, my little friend.
Am C
I?ll tell you stories, I?ll sing you to sleep,
F C
You?ll be in my arms, finally to keep.
