MY SON NICKOLAS
WHEN THE DOCTORS HANDED ME THE PAPERS
THAT SAID I WOULD BE EXPECTING A DAUGHTER OR A SON
I KNEW HOW MUCH MY LIFE WOULD CHANGE
AND HOW IT WAS THE END OF ALL MY FUN
JUST TURNING EIGHTEEN AND BARELY OUT OF SCHOOL
I KNEW I HAD A BIG RESPONSIBILTY AHEAD
SO INSTEAD OF STAYING OUT LATE TO PARTY WITH FRIENDS
I GOT MY LIFE STRAIGHT AND BY ELEVEN I WAS IN BED
THEN I SAW YOUR LITTLE BODY MOVE
AND YOUR FIST BALLED UP FOR THE FIRST TIME
AND IN THAT SONOGRAM ROOM LOOKING AT MY SON
I SLOWLY BEGAN TO CRY
I KNEW THE NEXT NINE MONTHS
WOULD BE THE HARDEST THEY COULD BE
WITH ALL THE CHANGES MY BODY WAS MAKING
THE BIGGEST AND BEST CHANGE WAS THE GROWTH OF MY BELLY
I WOULD NOT CHANGE ANYTHING IN THE WORLD
NOW THAT YOU ARE HERE
I AM READY FOR ALL YOU BRING ME
READY FOR ALL THE SHED TEARS
I KNEW HOW MUCH YOU WOULD MEAN TO ME
I GAVE THE REST OF MY CHILDHOOD UP FOR YOU
BUT THAT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY I HAVE CHOSEN
THAT IS WHAT A NEW MOM IS SUPPOSED TO DO!
