[Intro | fingerpicked ukulele | warm intimate male vocal] I’ve got a wish for the three of you, And a little something I want to say. There’s love already growing here, And a little more love on the way. [Verse 1 | lilting melodic vocal | light island reggae groove] You’re making plans for someone You’ve still so much to learn about. Will they love the early morning? Will they turn the whole place upside down? Will they have your sense of humour, Or that look you sometimes do? I’m looking forward to the day They start surprising both of you. [Pre-Chorus | soft harmonies | gentle melodic lift] There’s no knowing every turn, There’ll be plenty left to learn. But look at all the love They’re coming home to. [Chorus | warm full island groove | joyful soulful vocal] There’s a little more love on the way, A little more light in the everyday. Little feet finding somewhere to land, A whole new world in the palm of your hand. So here’s to the laughter, here’s to the tears, Here’s to the stories we’ll tell through the years. I’m raising a glass to the three of you today— There’s a little more love on the way. [Verse 2 | conversational sung vocal | rounded bass | offbeat guitar] I can picture all the questions Coming somewhere down the line: “Why’s the moon still out this morning?” “Can you read it one more time?” There’ll be songs you learn by heart, Then sing when they’re not even there. And you’ll catch yourselves still humming When the little one’s asleep. [Pre-Chorus | drums soften | tender male vocal] Some days you’ll laugh it through, Some days the washing wins. I hope you find a little grace For the day that you’ve been in. [Chorus | bright ukulele | warm vocal harmonies] There’s a little more love on the way, A little more light in the everyday. Little feet finding somewhere to land, A whole new world in the palm of your hand. So here’s to the laughter, here’s to the tears, Here’s to the stories we’ll tell through the years. I’m raising a glass to the three of you today— There’s a little more love on the way. [Bridge | slack-key guitar | intimate heartfelt vocal] And here’s my little promise, For the days you need a hand: You can call family and say, “We’re shattered.” You won’t need a better plan. We can bring a meal and listen, Give you both a little space. There is love around this little one Before we’ve even seen their face. [Final Chorus | full island band | soaring warm lead | layered harmonies] There’s a little more love on the way, A little more light in the everyday. Little feet finding somewhere to land, A whole new world in the palm of your hand. So here’s to the laughter, here’s to the tears, Here’s to the stories we’ll tell through the years. I’m raising a glass to the three of you today— There’s a little more love on the way. [Outro | ukulele and soft harmonies | gentle fade] To the two of you, And the one we’ll meet someday— You’ve got so much love around you, And a little more love on the way.
