The look of Love - Diana Krall

This song has so much meaning at the time I was expecting my first baby.

Contradicting with what others might say, I prefer Diana Krall's jazzy rendition of this song.  Her songs are really a good therapy for me during my first pregnancy. I listened to this song over and over again and it was very calming. Again, it depends on how you define the lyrics. My story is about the excitement waiting for my first born. I can't wait to welcome my baby and hold her in my arms.   The first time I saw Shakira, she was held up upside down by the nurse in front of my face.  It took a while for me to digest that now I am a mother.  Then in the wee hours of the morning, she was carted to my room. The first look of my baby girl,...I fell in love.

She was fair, with dark, thick curly hair. Her lips were rosy red and, her chubby pinkish cheeks...... as though she was wearing a blusher/rouge. The first few months was a trying period because she sleeps soundly during the day and keeps us up at nights....Basically the lyrics sums it all up of how I felt of my first born. Amazing, Magical, Miracle, and Humbled by God's gifts. Alhamdulillah, she has all grown up...healthy, insya Allah. It was really tiring in labor for 13 hours to get you out, girl!

The look of love is in your eyes
A look your smile can't disguise
The look of love is saying so much more than just words could ever say
And what my heart has heard, well it takes my breath away

I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you, now that I have found you

You've got the
Look of love, it's on your face
A look that time can't erase
Be mine tonight, let this be just the start of so many nights like this
Let's take a lover's vow and then seal it with a kiss

I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you, now that I have found you
Don't ever go
Don't ever go
I love you so
