To the child I'll never know
by:Gloria Dianne
How can I say good bye
when I never said hello,
Why does my heart grieve
for the one I'll never know.
You were a part of me
for just a little while.
I grieve because I'll never see
the magic in your smile.
I grieve for all the unsaid words
that you will never say.
I grieve that I will never see
you happily at play.
I grieve for all the lullabys
that will remain unsung.
I grieve because I'll never know
if you were my daughter or my son.
I grieve because you will never know
the comfort of my touch
I grieve because you will never know
that you were loved so much.
I grieve for all the tomorrows
that will never be.
I grieve because God chose
to take you back from me.
You live among the angels now
Your earthly mission done,
You will be so dearly missed
Good-bye my little one.
