Disney Musical May 20 - Baby Mine

Baby mine, don't you cry
Baby mine, dry your eyes

Rest your head close to my heart
Never to part, baby of mine
 

Little one, when you play
Don't you mind what they say
Let those eyes sparkle and shine
Never a tear, baby of mine

If they knew sweet little you
They'd end up loving you too

All those same people who scold you
What they'd give just for the right to hold you

From your head down to your toes
You're not much, goodness knows
But you're so precious to me
Sweet as can be, baby of mine

All of those people who scold you
What they'd give just for the right to hold you

From your head down to your toes
You're not much, goodness knows
But you're so precious to me
Sweet as can be, baby of mine
Baby of mine
 

One of Disney's sweetest songs and saddest moments. I especially love the version sung by Alison Krauss.

Just about everything about poor little Dumbo is authentically depressing. If only being able to touch his mother through their long trunks doesn't put a serious lump in your throat, seeing all the other circus baby animals cuddling with their mothers surely will.

For me, the moment that almost does me in is the mother kangaroo using herself as a rocking chair. The yawning tiger cubs come in at a close second.


You'll need a big, warm hug yourself after this.
