Baby Shoes Songtext
von Tiny Tim

Imagine the love of a child for its toys
The love of a bird for its mate
Imagine the love of a miser for gold
Then imagine a love twice as great
If you multiple each love a million times more
It wont be half the love that a mother has for

Baby shoes, baby shoes, mother will never forget them
You have forgotten when your feet were bare
Mother remembers, she still has a pair of
Baby shoes, baby shoes,
To keep them the world she′d refuse
If she had to choose, her life she would loose
Before she part with her baby's shoes


Alone in the attic she fondles those shoes
And wonders where her boy has gone
And over these shoes she is saying a prayer,
She is praying to keep him from harm
In her heart there is gladness, though her eyes are wet
Every mother remembers, while you may forget

Baby shoes, baby shoes,
Mother will never forget them
You have forgotten when your feet were bare
Mother remembers, she still has a pair
Of baby shoes, baby shoes,
To keep them the world she′d refuse
If she had to choose, her life she would loose
Before she part with her baby's shoes
