In Your Own Time

A tender lullaby for families of premature babies - about corrected age, and counting from the day your baby was meant to arrive.

Lyrics

Verse

You came to us early, so small and so brave

A whisper of a heartbeat, a river of a wave

We counted every gram, every breath in the light

Our tiny little fighter, holding on so tight

Chorus

In your own time, in your own way

You're growing a little stronger every day

We'll count from the day you were meant to arrive

And celebrate the day that you came alive

Verse

There's no need to hurry, no race to be run

Just look how far you've travelled, little one

From the palm of a hand to the whole wide world

Our brave little wonder, gently unfurled

Chorus

In your own time, in your own way

You're growing a little stronger every day

We'll count from the day you were meant to arrive

And celebrate the day that you came alive

Outro

In your own time

Take your own time
