about

I made this song up for a little girl I never knew, but I knew about from her family. She was near the end of her time.

lyrics

There's a bird that sings
And it flies so high
Outside the window where you lay
And the song it sings
Is a lullaby
A Christmas song for you
And the angels around you flew
And in your heart… you were singing too

Under a summer sky
Is a butterfly
And dandelions where you play
And your brother rides
His shiny new bike
Under that sky so blue
He's laughing, so are you
And in your heart… you're pedaling too

Now the world has many
Gifts to share
A Christmas tree for me and you
And there's a gift for everyone there
Olivia, it's true
The bird and the butterfly and the sky so blue
And in your heart…there's love for you
