Our Little Girl

Our hearts are broken
From one little girl
Whom we loved and whom we lived in
Smothering her with love
We could not tell the future
Or the brokenness we would then compose
Now the solitude they feel
At the emptiness which now is revealed
Will crumble our hearts at just the sight
The love in which we lent
To that one little heart, that one little girl
May-hap go far into the world that we do not know well at all

But who knows
Who dares to say
In which the wind will obey
It could blow in many ways
In our favor
Or in theirs
O wind please be ours
Be ours to blow
To blow away and back again
I want to see her -- yes please once again
To see her smile and hear her laugh
O what a joy would that be in
For that little girl
She is ours too
Yes she -- is Our Little Girl
