Isn't She Lovely?

Wow... 4 weeks or less until I am a first time daddy. This is crazy stuff. I was driving to work this morning and I was listening to Howard Stern as usual. This morning Stevie Wonder was a guest and he was on promoting his new album. Howard had a baby grand rolled into the studio for Stevie to play on if he wanted to. Mary Ann from Brooklyn called in and requested "Isn't She Lovely". I knew the tune, but I had never taken the time to listen to the lyrics. What I heard made me well up with tears as it is a beautiful song and made me think about my daughter who is almost here. I can't wait to see her.

Here's the lyrics:


Stevie Wonder: Isn't she lovely?

Isn't she lovely
Isn't she wonderfull
Isn't she precious
Less than one minute old
I never thought through love we'd be
Making one as lovely as she
But isn't she lovely made from love

Isn't she pretty
Truly the angel's best
Boy, I'm so happy
We have been heaven blessed
I can't believe what God has done
through us he's given life to one
But isn't she lovely made from love

Isn't she lovely
Life and love are the same
Life is AishaThe meaning of her name
Londie, it could have not been done
Without you who conceived the one
That's so very lovely made from love.
