I'm Pregnant

All alone and abandoned
I don't want to give my baby up
Far too late to abort
Would't take that route even if I could
I want this child too badly
God help me
I don't have any idea at all how I'm gonna raise her
Not without a job, money or a husband

Maybe it's a bit much to ask
Please let me know if it is
If any of you could put us up
Sign your name on her birth certificate
No worries
I won't ask you for huge cash or any material things
I just want a father for my kid
Someone to tell her about when she's older

You never even have to see her
Not if you don't want her
I'll just tell her that you died
That way she'll never go looking
She'll never interfere in your life
On the other hand I would be willing
To cut another different kind of deal
One you might find much better suited to your hero instincts

Marry me
Raise her as your own
I'll be your wife in any and every way that you choose
For however long you want
Just as long as you promise
To never ever
No matter what happens us
Please promise that you will never ever
Try to take my little girl away from me
