Story Behind The Song

We were working on a lullaby CD, DreamSongs, and this song was one of the last songs written for the CD. It came to us in about a half-hour. It just flew in and wanted to be written. It has a pop sound to it, even though it was written for a lullaby CD. To many people, You Are Loved is their favorite cut off of the album, DreamSongs.

Song Description

You are Loved is what a mother is saying to her child, telling her child that wherever the child goes or whatever the child does that the mother will always love that child...unconditionally.

Verse 1 You are everything I hoped for
In my dreams, and oh so much
more
You're a light sweet child of mine
And the hope of the future
burns brightly
So brightly in your eyes

Verse 2 You bring magic to my life
And it all feels so new, looking at
the world with you
I will watch you as you change
and grow
And in each and every moment
I hope that you will know

CHORUS: YOU ARE LOVED
You're my angel from above
And wherever you go
And whatever you do
You can always be sure
YOU ARE LOVED

Verse 3 Now, as I hold you in my arms
tonight
As you sleep so softly, I cherish
this precious time
Now, as you dream my little one
I will hope and pray that everyday
These words will fill your heart

(CHORUS)

BRIDGE: As long as the stars shine in the
sky
My love will be there for you
As long as the Earth turns day
into night
I'll love you through and through
(CHORUS)

And wherever you go
And whatever you do
You can always be sure
YOU ARE LOVED
Mmm...
YOU ARE LOVED
