BACK AND FORTH
Sunlight creeping through the blinds
Sound machines to drown out noise
All the details are so clear to me
Baskets filled with blocks and balls
Shelves and shelves of books and dolls
I look down and never want to leave
Back and forth we rock and sway
Wouldn’t have it any other way
Your eyes are closed
Your fingers curled
Darling, you are my whole world
I think about how life has taken course
As we rock back and forth
Memories roll through my mind
Of when you came into my life
I can’t imagine not having you around
Snuggled in so safe and warm
We both dream of what’s to come
I don’t want to ever put you down
Back and forth we rock and sway
Wouldn’t have it any other way
Your little lips
Your button nose
I’m so tired, but that’s how it goes
I smile cause I couldn’t love you more
And we rock back and forth
Back and forth
Back and forth
