Atlas: Life

It began With a whisper in my ear "I think it's time." Suddenly all we held dear was on the line. As your heart measured in mountains, fell and climbed You're okay, you're okay, you're okay, you're okay Amen We were changed in an instant We became so much more Our definition of perfect was written when she was born She drew her first breath out of what love meant In my heart, reconciled all the darkness and light inside my chest As her hands held tight And her eyes met mine, I saw the future unfold in sliver and gold And I'm already proud Beautiful like your mother You are grace, you are light The better version of our past From the start of life We will learn from each other As you grow up, we will too And our reflections of one another We will start something new We were changed in an instant We became so much more Our definition of perfect was written when you were born There is so much to tell you There is so much to see We will show you the oceans, and everything in between What a privilege to love you To teach you all that we know To watch you build a collection of dreams that you can call your own You are beautiful, like your mother You are grace, you are light oh A better version of our past From the start of life We were changed in an instant When we became so much more, oh Our definition of perfect was written when you were born
