First Conversation

If you could speak
Would you describe where you've been
The world you come from?
Do the babies fall from stars above
Or are they chemical results of love?
Were you meant for me
As I was meant for you?

And could you tell us
Where you journey began
On a spirit planet?
Are you a sacred gift in flesh and blood
Carried by the thought of God?
Did He call for you
As He once called for me?

Your first reply
Is an everlasting smile
My breathing child
I am breathless by surprise
We get wiser through the brain
But somehow wiser through the pain
I just believe in you
As you believe in me

And how did you find us
Did you choose from a list
A "Parents Yellow Pages"?
Or did we meet as angels in a dream
Or were you just
The strongest in the stream
Did you reappear
From Heaven somewhere near?

Your first reply
Is an everlasting smile
My breathing child
I am breathless by surprise
We get wiser through the brain
But somehow wiser through the pain
I just believe in you
As you believe in me

Your precious little face
Holds that secret
But I don't care
'Cause now you're here
Your first reply
Is an everlasting smile
I won't ask why
I am breathless by surprise
Now we get wiser through the brain
But somehow wiser through the pain
I just believe in you
I believe in you
If we believe at all
