Just a little dreaming today...

Take a look at Lily, she's scared
She's shaking like the last leaf on a tree
Take a look at Lily, she's sad
Wondering if this is how life will always be

Cry now, my Lily
Come cry here in my arms
You can rest your head against me
I will keep you safe from harm
Tell me, my sweet Lily
What is it you're keeping inside
I will listen to your words
Until they're gone and can no longer hide

Take a look at Lily, she's staring
She's staring at her mama's unfamiliar face
Take a look at Lily, she's wondering
She's wondering if now she might finally be safe

Sleep now, my Lily
Come sleep here in my arms
You can rest your head against me
I will keep you safe from harm
Let go now, my Lily
I am stronger than you are
I will carry the weight of your worries
Until they weigh no more

Take a look at Lily, she's sleeping
Her eyelids fight a war against her fears
Take a look at Lily, she's dreaming
She's dreaming of what could be in coming years

Wake up now, my Lily
With time you'll feel more secure
The world will be a bit less scary
I'll always be waiting at your door
Wake up now, my Lily
Smell the hope in the air you breathe
Look around at your new life
And know that we are a forever team

Take a look at Lily, she's breathing
She's breathing in the fresh American air
Take a look at Lily, she's smiling
She's smiling with her eyes, without a care

Fly high now, my Lily
You can fly high as a bird, you will see
The sky is the limit for you, Lily
You can be anything that you want to be
You are so beautiful, my Lily
In your hair I can see heaven shine
And your wings, so small and sweet
You are perfect, little angel of mine

Listen to Lily, she's laughing
Laughing so deep it come from her toes
Listen to Lily, she's singing
She's singing like she's in a Broadway show

Laugh now, my Lily
Watch the butterflies fly from your mouth
There is no sweeter sound than your giggles
It doesn't matter what you're laughing about
Sing now, my Lily
Sing so the whole world can hear
Your voice will inspire many
You've already touched lives far and near

Take a look at Lily, she's dancing
She's dancing in a busy sea of twirls
Take a look at Lily, she's spinning
She's spinning in the love from around the world

So dance now, my Lily
Dance to the rhythm of your heart
You are home now once and forever
You and I will never be apart
So spin now, my Lily
Spin in your long flowered dress
Throw your hands in the air so freely
And from now on you will have nothing but the best
