Nellie Lyrics

When your mother told me - Someone new was on the way
A little one to bring home - started planning right away

You jumped into my heart right there - I remember the night
I held your mother close I kissed away a tear from her eye.

Time stood still - as the words came over the phone
She said that that something's not right - Please come so I'm not alone

The doctor said our girl was broken they could see inside
Shattered and helpless - Hoping for miracle ride

Can you survive - My sweet Nellie
I will be here - Waiting for you

I feel you inside - My sweet Baby
I will be here

On the day that we met you - never saw you open your eyes
Your body wasn't ready to - Endure the cold world outside

I whispered my words and held your body close to mine
Helpless and heartbroken couldn't say goodbye.

Can you survive - My sweet Nellie
I will be here - Waiting for you

I feel you inside - My sweet Baby
I will be here - Waiting for you
