Lyrics
Verse 1
Mommy can you feel me as I move around inside?
I can hear your every heartbeat, even as you give me life
I long for the moment; I can look into your eyes
And put a pretty picture, to the voice I hear inside
Oh mommy, oh mommy, I’m alive

Verse 2
From that first moment, on that conception day
I became a living being, developing along the way
If you could just see me, little fingers …. little toes
My features they are forming, I might even have… your nose
Oh mommy, oh mommy, I’m alive

Bridge
Oh don’t you go the wrong way
Put your circumstance aside
Will you listen to your heart now
Don’t be driven by… your mind
Never ever think that I am not
A living child
I’m your very own baby


Verse 3
I have my own body, and I have my own mind
Have my very own heart beat; I have my own size
I’m a living being, just, waiting… for the day,
I make my grand appearance; I can breathe my own air
Oh mommy, oh mommy, I’m alive

Can you hear me …….. I’m your own child?
Can you feel me …….. I’m a living child?
Can you hear me ……... I’m your own child
Oh mommy, oh mommy, I’m alive
I’m alive
Can you hear me ……….. I’m alive
Can you feel me ……….. I’m alive
Can you hear me ………. I’m alive
