little soul

I found these lyrics through another blog about miscarriage. I'm proud of a band for writing a song about the loss of a baby. I haven't found the actual song yet, but this is so touching, especially from the viewpoint of the father.

Lyrics: Tom, Music: Oswald

I remember the day when I heard you were on your way
tears of joy as we hugged and planned your life on earth
for weeks now we have loved you, never let you out of our thoughts
although you never knew us we needed you a lot

Little soul with a face I’ve never known
Little soul how I wish that you had grown
Little lost soul try to find your way back home
Little soul goodbye

Im so glad now you weren’t a secret that we shared you for a while
You put smiles upon the faces of those we love
If you’re out there I hope you hear me and know that Im your dad
And if you don’t mind could you blow a kiss to your mum

Little soul with a face I’ve never known
Little soul how I wish that you had grown
Little lost soul try to find your way back home
Little soul goodbye

I want to thank you for all you’ve done, the way you made her smile
Forever I will see her in a way that I never have
I only hope now you can guide her and help her through the dark
When she dreams now can you drop by and help to mend her heart

Little soul with a face I’ve never known
Little soul how I wish that you had grown
Little lost soul try to find your way back home
My little soul goodbye
