Story behind the song
For any mother who has lost a child (or father) for that matter, this song was written as a link of comfort to the grieving.
Lyrics
I just heard from the doctor; I'll never bear a child
I closed my eyes and clinched my fists as my angry thoughts ran wild
A baby's all I've dreamed of up until this day
Inside I feel an emptiness like my child has gone away
I miss my baby to hold
He never is too old
I miss my baby to hold in my arms
I wish my baby'd come home
I feel so all alone
I miss my baby, my baby to hold
And I'm a mother grieving for the child I've lost to death
My pain's too great to speak of and it takes away my breath
Paralyzed with sorrow
Every nerve within my brain
Is flashing full of memories and I hold my head in pain
(Refrain)
I miss my baby to hold...
Sittin' here and rocking, I'm growing gray and old
My children grew their wings and left the nest a long time ago
My memory is fading, but for the frames upon my walls
I stare at all their faces and I pray they'd come or call
I miss my babies to hold
They never are too old
I miss my babies to hold in my arms
I wish my babies were home
I feel so all alone
I miss my babies, my babies to hold
