10 Fingers, 10 Toes, 10 lbs, 10 oz
Hey, baby Rio
My first born
You're finally here
I wanna make a song for you
Daddy's gonna make a song for you
Rio Amor, double Gemini
Born on a Saturday mornin', swimmin' right
Out the womb, the midwives, Mommy and I
In the living room
Plus the grandmas
Water delivery hand-off
Now you're on her chest and my manhood ran off
How's the heart, count the parts
She's a perfect 10
Alright then we walk to the bedroom
Umbilical attached still
Mom's a soldier how natural does that feel
We let it pulse when it slowed down
I cut the cord, you're your own now
And I swore I had shit figured out before
Baby the old me went right out the door
I just wanna be the father, folks rarely do
Stand up and be there, for you
Sos el rio
Que desemboca en mi corazon
Eres mia
Yo soy el mar y tu eres mi rio. (x2)
You are the reason that I come home faster
You are the source for my energy lasting
You are the bounce in my confident step
You are an angel on my shoulder I will always accept
So I'm changin' diapers
Arrangin' a life for
A new kinda cypher
I look just like ya
You got Mommy's lips though and dimples
Can it be that it was all so simple
Before, and that it still is
Glad we waited 'til 30 now I can really feel it
Mighta missed the whole point of this
A tighter gift I've been anointed with
They never tell you the joys
Only baby gripes and sleepless nights, oh boy
It's all parade, don't rain
Now there's smiles for miles and I'm so changed
Sos el rio
Que desemboca en mi corazon
Eres mia
Yo soy el mar y tu eres mi rio. (x2)
Well you deserve the best
We bought you a Bugaboo
That's material, ain't worth what a hug'll do
We'll hit the zoo
When you're two
I'll sing to you
When you're blue
Baby. Ooh, baby we're new
The trinity, divinity
You're the centipede
Mom's the butterfly and I'm the dragon
Get in the wagon
Let's see the world, my sweetest girl, imagine
What I'm thinkin' when I'm tryin' to read you're mind
From above in the bed and you're closin' your eyes
Yawning and stretching
It's the dawning of a new age, you're our greatest blessing
River of Love, I give you my blood
You're my heart out of body, teaching us to be godly
And you can have whatever you wish
Just focus your thoughts and listen to this
Sos el rio
Que desemboca en mi corazon
Eres mia
Yo soy el mar y tu eres mi rio. (x2)
See, when you came into this world
There was a thickness in the air
Unexplainable to any other feeling that I felt before
You know, I sat there in the water with Mommy
And I felt between her legs, and when I touched your head
I was a new man instantly
Immediate understanding of that which I did not understand before
And I got a lot to show you, baby
We gon' have a good time
You know
Mommy changed her whole diet
Daddy changed his whole diet
We raisin' you in a natural way
We gon' take care of you real well
You don't gotta worry about a thing
And since you've been here
Things have been all right....
It's all positive
Thank you
I love you
