� Every baby needs a mama, needs a papa, close that hand Every baby needs a mama, needs a papa, to hold their hands I look in their eyes, a beautiful child, they tell me more than words If he reaches his hand and cries for something, oh I'll give him all I have Every baby needs a mama, needs a papa, close that hand Every baby needs a mama, needs a papa, to hold their hand Birdies on the window, they say that birdies on my window If I could fly, oh baby, if I would fly Oh wow, to live me I'm holding his hand, giving my love, through happiness and sorrow And in no time he'll be a big boy, oh what a wonder of love Every baby needs a mama, needs a papa, close that hand Every baby needs a mama, needs a papa, to hold their hand Every baby needs a mama, needs a papa, close that hand Oh little baby, you're not alone
