Unconditional Love

Unconditional Love

Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Unconditional Love

I loved you when I had you
And when you touched my eyes
I couldn't help but smile I had to
In between the cries

Then I got to hold youĀ 
And sing you lullabiesĀ 
I thought of the things we would go through
Mommy's little guy

When I heard you talk
I think my heart skipped a beat
Then I saw you walk
Stumbling on your feet

Mumbling something funny
Laughing your heart away
Then you called me mommy
And changed my life that day

When I put you on the school bus
I cried the first few times
Then I thought of the two of us
And smiled away the cries

Then I watched you grow and grow
This little boy of mine
Soon you were a beau I know
Right behind my eyes

Now you are man
But still my boy to me
I will love you with all I can
Till I no longer be

And when I am gone
Don't think my love goes away
It will travel on
Getting stronger every day
