What It Means To Be Loved
by Mark Schultz

Album: The Best of Mark Schultz

For five months eight days
My wife and I had waited
Getting ready for our baby girl
But when he called the doctor said, “I need to see you”
And “Could you come in soon”
Something died inside of me to sit with him and hear
A test had said our baby may not live to be a year
And turning to my wife he said
What do you wanna do
She said…

Chorus
I wanna give her the world
I wanna hold her hand
I wanna be her mom for as long as I can
I wanna live every moment, until that day comes
I wanna show her what it means to be loved

So we spent each day
Watching every minute
And praying for our baby girl
And I will not forget the way I felt that moment
When she came into this world

But they took her from the room just as soon as she was born
And watching through a window I could see her holding on
When a voice inside me said

Chorus

Well ever since the day
We got to bring her home
She's been out to prove the doctors wrong
You should see her now
She's as pretty as her mom
And there's a boy at the front door waiting just to take her to her high school prom

And he wants to give her the world
Wants to hold her hand
And some day she may get a wedding band
But she's gonna live every moment
Until that day comes
And we're gonna show her what it means to be loved

Show her what it means to be loved
What it means to be loved
