Oh, how I wish
I could watch her play
And hold her tight from night until day

I wish there was dress-up
And playing with dolls
Kissing her boo-boos
Whenever she falls

Saying good-night
And tucking her in
Reading bedtime stories
Again and again

Saying our prayers
As a family of three
Just Mommy and Daddy
And our Melody

I wish I could hear
All she would say
“Mommy, I love you”
“Daddy, lets play”

To see her with Daddy
Holding his hand
As they sit there together
And play in the sand

Its hard to be happy
On Mother's day you see
My baby's in heaven
And not present with me
