Lyrics
I see a baby on the ultrasound relaxing in its sac
The last time we were this far along, all we could see was black
But when the doctor walked in with a smile and not a pensive stare
I knew I could exhale
Baby, you're actually there
I saw a baby; I ain't scared to tell my family and friends
I didn't wanna get their hopes up to bear bad news once again
But now the diapers, clothes, and toys that piled up in this empty room
Can all be dusted off
Baby, you're comin' so soon
The sight of kids playing at parks would make me cry
I used to kneel and clasp my hands and ask God why
My wife and I would rack our brains: should we still try?
But once I heard your heartbeat, I felt like I could fly
I see a baby; I don't think that I'll have nightmares anymore
Of gently cradling my crying wife on a bloody bathroom floor
When I touch her belly now, I know you're there and you'll be fine
It soothes us both to sleep
Baby's gonna make it this time
Yes, you're gonna make it this time
Please let him make it this time
