Where did my baby go?
It seems like only yesterday
You cooed and played in your crib.
I'm sure it was just last week
I stayed up all night with you
How could it be seventeen years
Since you tottered across the room
With your first steps?
....

Where did my baby go?
While I wasn't looking
She grew into a beautiful young woman.
Where did my baby go?
....

Nowhere, she's in my heart
And right beside her is
The lovely young woman she's become.
