You Were Meant to Be
You Were Meant to Be
New Child
Contemporary
Welcome to the world, Parker Lee Mather. This song was made with love by your grandparents to celebrate the day you arrived—and to give you something you can carry for the rest of your life. You are the first grandchild in our family, and from the very first moment we knew you were coming, our hearts were already yours. With Taylor as your mom and Dylan as your dad, you are surrounded by a love that’s steady, proud, and endless. May this music always remind you that you were dreamed of, prayed for, and welcomed into a family that couldn’t wait to meet you.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We see tears of joy
In mama Taylor’s eyes
We see daddy Dylan
Hold their greatest prize
[Chorus]
Because Parker, you were always meant to be
We’ll watch you grow so joyfully
Forever in our hearts you’ll stay
Our sweet Parker Lee
[Verse 2]
We see Taylor shine
And Dylan standing true
We see them fall in love
All over again with you
[Chorus]
Because Parker, you were always meant to be
We’ll watch you grow so joyfully
Forever in our hearts you’ll stay
Our sweet Parker Lee
[Verse 3]
We see you wearing Eagles green
And ping pong afternoons
We see gentle strength
Growing inside you
[Verse 4]
[Powerful vocals]
We see your parents’ arms around you
Pup Luna at your feet
Your Lovey and your Zayda waiting
To make your world complete
[Chorus]
Because Parker, you were always meant to be
We’ll watch you grow so joyfully
Forever in our hearts you’ll stay
Our sweet Parker Lee
[Instrumental Break – Acoustic Guitar and Harmonica]
[Verse 5]
[Powerful vocals]
We see the name Lee that you carry
A bridge across the years
Your grandpa’s love and memory
Living on right here
[Verse 6]
We see kitchens full of flavor
And workshops full of dreams
We see artists and inventors
In your family genes
[Final Verse]
So build your story, little Parker
Write each chapter as you go
We’ll be cheering from the sidelines
Watching our sweet grandson grow
[Outro]
We’ll love you all our lives
Our sweet Parker Lee
Forever you were meant to be
