Little Miracle

Your heartbeat is on the screen
We wait and anticipate
We've waited nine months for you
Enough time to choose your name
Emotions are running high
We don't know if you'll be alright
I'm not a religious man
But I pray
I pray you're okay

And at 7:11am
We met you for the first time
Our little miracle
We didn't know if you'd be alright

Your heartbeat is on the screen
We wait and anticipate
We've waited nine months for you
Enough time to build your home
I can't control my crying
Paralysed by anxiety
I'm not a spiritual man
But I pray
I pray you're okay

And at 7:11am
We met you for the first time
Our little miracle
We didn't know if you'd be alright

They helped you catch your breath
We were so relieved that you cried
Our little miracle
Everything will be alright

You have your mother's lips
And tiny versions of my eyes
A face the shape of a heart
I have my daughter in my arms

And at 7:11am
We met you for the first time
Our little miracle
We always knew that you'd be just fine

They helped you catch your breath
We were so relieved to hear you cry
Our little miracle
Everything will be alright
