They say each generation is replaced.
But each one has been held so dear.
But tomorrow I will see the face
of two new girls who did appear.

I see their lights come shining
for the moment, still in peace.
On this day, now, on this day, now
I shall meet my niece.

They say they had to take my sister
up to St. Peter's Hospital.
But now call me "Uncle Mike," mister
because I got the great phone call.

I see their lights come shining
for the moment, still in peace.
On this day, now, on this day, now
I shall meet my niece.

Now Ashley sleeps inside her bassinet.
And Rachel, well, she does the same.
The twins are sweet as babies get.
As their uncle, I'll stand by that claim.

I see their lights come shining
for the moment, still in peace.
On this day, now, on this day, now
I shall meet my niece.

And my niece.
