twas late december the news came
and i got so excited, i cried all day
and you were such a lovely, precious sight
when i saw our baby in your eyes
it was like falling deep in love
it heard the angels cry above
i felt a blessing straight from god
the day that you gave me a son
i called 'about everyone i knew
just think, i'll be a father 'cause of you
there's no greater love than what you gave
a brand new baby on the way
oh such tears of joy, i've never known
i can't remember
it's like a song, i've never heard
i've never sung, but know the words
