This Life and the Next Lyrics

Holding you heart to heart

The first moments of your life

I laughed with joy to take you home

Couldn't believe you were all mine

Eyes full of wonder and curiosity

Of all the people in the world

You came to me

I hear you

I see you

I feel you in my soul

In my eyes

You will never grow old

I thank God for you

A blessing to this simple man

You have my heart

And always will

From this life to the next

As the years went by

I learned to listen

And ask what you think

I just want to hear you out

Even when we disagree

See you with joy and wonder

Through the eyes of a child

My love surrounds you

And grows with every smile

I hear you

I see you

I feel you in my soul

In my eyes

You will never grow old

I thank God for you

A blessing to this simple man

You have my heart

And always will

From this life to the next

I hear you

I see you

I feel you in my soul

In my eyes

You will never grow old

I thank God for you

A blessing to this simple man

You have my heart

And always will

From this life to the next
