I feel your heart beat My blood flows through your veins, and I wonder at the miracle of this life that grows inside me Will you wear blue jeans and baseball caps and play with trucks and climb trees? Or will you wear frilly dresses trimmed in lace and have tea parties? Boy or girl It doesn't matter I know I will love you I already do... Will you have hair like spun gold with eyes the color of the morning sky? Will your hair be dark as midnight with eyes as green as the sea? Or will your hair be red, bright as a copper penny? Hazel or brown It doesn't matter I know I will love you I already do... When you are born will you be perfect, with ten fingers, ten toes? Will you crawl and run and jump? Will your smile light up a room? Will you brighten a day with your laughter? Hugs and kisses It doesn't matter I know I will love you I already do... I feel you kick inside me, strong and determined And I wonder who you will be Will you be a pilot or a ballerina? Will you protect all from harm or will you build things with your hands? Teacher or healer It doesn't matter I know I will love you I already do... I feel your heart beat and I know I will love you I already do...
