(© Dec. 12, 2012 by Rick Moody)

G C
I never had a baby
G
I always wanted one
D
But now I have a step-daughter (daughter 2nd time)
G
The other’s sadly gone (End here 2nd time)

G C
You are so very beautiful
G
So sweet and caring too
D
I will never have a baby
G
But I have great love for you

G C
And now with winter coming
G
In more ways than just one
D
I’d like to tell you daughter
G
How you’ve changed the way I am

G C
I can see between the willows
G
And the crying stars at night
D
That there has to be a reason
G
For you daughter in my life
