As I sat waiting for my second nephew to come, I thought i would reflect on life as an uncle. This is what I came up with.
The Uncle Song(For Danger and Fearless)
2000 miles is quite far away
And Im looking at hours to go
Quietly wondering the sight I will see
When our eyes finally meet
30 long hours of waiting out here
Wondering when you would come
Wishing the sandman would give some relief
As the cry was finally heard
Thats my nephew, he was born today
Thats my nephew, this joy will not fade away
Thats my nephew, a miracle to hold
Thats my nephew, Thats my nephew
17 months have now come and then gone
And a few short days I have seen
The beautiful image of life and of love
That has come in this world to be
As I wait for the phone to ring with the news
That another has come in the world
I can only just ponder the wonder Ill see
When Im there holding you two
Theyre my nephews, they were born away
Theyre my nephews, this joy will never fade
Theyre my nephews, a miracle to hold,
Theyre my nephews, Theyre my nephews
Now danger and fearless are sights to behold
Living, breathing life from above
The power of silence has spoken the news
Children you are loved
I can never promise I wont be far
But youll always be here in my heart
And the memory of times that I have held you
Will make us never feel apart
Youre my nephews, you might be far away
But Youre my nephews, and my joy will never fade
Cause youre my nephews, a miracle to behold
Youre my nephews, yes youre my nephews.
Beautiful.
