Lyrics
You came in to this world, you were shriekin' and cryin', Blind to the miracle all around you Like a turned-loose slave, whose freedom astounds him, Reaching out for someone to comfort you

Pretty soon, you'll be filling out your eyes with questions Not knowing who brought you here or why. And you could spend the better part of your life inquiring Much to pre-occupied to see it slips by.

Little Kristin January 28, There's no one person here to set you straight There's no clear avenue out of the gate But you know your uncle's pullin' for you all the way Prayin' for sunshine to fill your day He's wishing you love in abundance, and simple contentment

I want to come and serenade you, I want cuddle and hold you Show you all the animals at the zoo Take you on my shoulders as I watch you getting older, Try and guess the riddles that you put me through I'd gladly trade you a frog and a whole bunch of marbles To stand for a instant inside your shoes And Kristin, I'm hopin' that you'll save me a secret One special secret just for me and you.

Little Kristin January 28, There's no one person here to set you straight There's no clear avenue out of the gate But you know your uncle's pullin' for you all the way Prayin' for sunshine to fill your day He's wishing you love in abundance, and simple contentment
