He was singing back to Me

This is a song that GrandCarol wrote for our boy (and us). Thanks GrandCarol and we are speechless (if you can imagine)

I was singing to my grandchild
Such a happy 8 month boy.
To rock him on my lap and sing
was bringing me such joy.

As I whispered words that I had sung
to all my family,

chorus
He looked at me with baby eyes
and then I heard a soft reply
This child of my child realized
the language music brings

And as I sang a lullaby,
He looked at me with baby eyes
and then I heard his soft reply
He was singing back to me.

There were no words in his sweet song
There didn't need to be.
I sang, and he just hummed along
In baby poetry.

Chorus
He looked at me with baby eyes
and then I heard a soft reply
this child of my child recognized
the language music brings.

And as I sang a lullaby
He looked at me with baby eyes
and then I heard his soft reply,
He was singing back to me.
