lyrics

Oh, my child, you’re a special one,
hair as red as wildfire, eyes are blue as deepest ocean,
Smile sets this heart in motion
A world is opening up in me, as you explore on hands and feet,
Dependent on every need, you help me see that,

Chorus:
Love is all around me,
I can see oh so clearly,
And I can feel it in my bones,
It is safe to believe,
That love is all around me.

Avynn, just you being here, wide-eyed window to the soul,
Teaching me so very much about living life in simple trust,
There are days I gotta say it’s hard to see the good at all,
Easier to build up walls,
But you remind me that,

[Chorus]

Did you fall on your back? I’m sorry to see that,
I hate to hear you cryin’
You know, life is just like that,
The pain, the hurt, will leave you flat,
To paint it different would be lying
There’s more to life than getting bruised,
Kicked around, win and lose,
Even if you hit rock bottom,
When you fall, beneath it all is…

Love in the stars at night, twinkling in pure delight
Love in a stranger’s smile, walking down the street
Love, it’s in the trees, birds singing sweet mysteries
Love. Can you feel it child? Love…

[Chorus]
