As the season changes, so do I.
My belly is getting bigger which means it's almost time.
As the leaves begin to fall, so does my heart.
I waited too long -- I hope you're still smart.
I wasted eight months and didn't believe in you.
I tried to convince myself that it all wasn't true.
Now the day is almost here when you will become alive.
I can only imagine how perfect you'll be and how much I'll cry.
I didn't know it until today, until I saw the first leaf fall...
But you are my life and you will always be my ALL.
The same season is changing, almost a year gone in time.
I still have that belly that reminds me you were once mine.
The leaves seem to drift like they're chasing after my heart far away.
I feel like the months have disappeared and you're no longer a baby.
I know I've ignored the most precious days of our lives.
I'm not ready for your birthday and I'm hoping it passes me by.
The day you were born, your eyes forever changed me.
I never knew how much love I was able to bury so deep.
Although I've tried to hide it and pretend I don't care,
You are still my ALL... you're the reason why I'm still here.
