Baby Dance

I love to watch the way your pretty maple grows
Squeezing the earth between its little toes
As we listen to the leaves tell the story of the wind
I will know how it begins
Lying down here

So before you die
Baby dance baby dance baby dance
Baby move like you move like you move
Stay the simple sway of my heart
That I get from you

Rollie Pollie comes the sun again
To tuck me to sleep next to my best friend
It was a warm summer night we filled with memories
And your loving wings wrapped all around me
Won’t go nowhere
Lying down here

So before we die
Baby dance baby dance baby dance
Baby move like you move like you move
Stay the simple sway of my heart
That I get from you

Sitting up above the world
Baby Dance
