9 Months (Baby's Prayer)
One month and time flies
I already exist
And you haven't even found out yet
It's two and it's getting closer
But I'm still
Too small, you see?
Three months and the torment
Your suffering
I can already feel it too
Calm your heart
For when I leave here
Maybe I'll be trouble
A life of expenses
But please let me stay
And if by chance
I don't have your eyes
Will you still love me?
I know anxiety
Is almost an enemy
But I don't want to be a burden
So please
Let me into your life
But calm your heart
If it's a storm, all fear
If it's regret
Please, get rid of it
You don't have me completely yet
You don't really know me
But I can already hear you
And as the belly grows
You'll still be beautiful
I don't even need to see you
Dry your tears and stay with me
Even when you're a bit sad
I already know that I love you!
Four months
Time, I beg you for patience
I came from heaven because of love
In the fifth, four are missing
And I bet the gifts
Are already coming in pink or blue
And when the sixth arrives
Everyone can see
That you're not alone
In the seventh, I already have little handkerchiefs with my name
Sorry dad, but she's all mine
If it's a storm, all fear
If it's regret
Please, get rid of it
You don't have me completely yet
You don't really know me
But I can already hear you
And as the belly grows
You'll still be beautiful
I don't even need to see you
Dry your tears and stay with me
Even when you're a bit sad
I already know that I love you!
Eighth month, hold on
I'm almost there
I just want a way to find you
In the ninth, the rush comes
The pain, the tears, us
Sorry you have to bleed
And for a few more years
You'll make plans
Wondering if they're for me
And I'll wake you up
In the early hours
You'll love me anyway
My first step
Will be into your arms
Hold me when I fall
And at the end of the day, only your voice
Will be able to make me sleep
If it's a storm, all fear
If it's regret
Please, get rid of it
You don't have me completely yet
You don't really know me
But I can already hear you
And as the belly grows
You'll still be beautiful
I don't even need to see you
Dry your tears and stay with me
Even when you're a bit sad
I already know
That I love you!
