Somewhere over the rainbow

I believe that between 17-19 weeks your baby's ears have developed and can hear sounds within the womb. I have been singing songs to my little one. I love the song "I will" by the Beatles. But a really beautiful song that i have recently learned the words to and started singing is "Somewhere Over the Rainbow". I think I am tone deaf, but Im sure the baby won't mind :)

Some other songs I have been singing are; twinkle twinkle, You are my Sunshine, True Colours, ABC's.... I want to sing songs other than childrens lullabies, any suggestions?

* I Will*
Who knows how long I've loved you
You know I love you still
Will I wait a lonely life time
If you want me to I will
For if I ever saw you
I didn't catch you name
It never really mattered
I will always feel the same
Love you forever and forever
Love you with all my heart
Love you whenever we're together
Love you when We're apart
And when at last i find you
Your song will fill the air
Sing it loud so I can hear you
Make it easy to be near you
For the things you do endear you to me
Oh you know I will
I will

Oh My Mama, by Alela Diane, from the album The Pirates Gospel

Oh my mama
She gave me these feathered breaths
Oh my Mama
She told me use your voice,
My little bird

She said sing sing sing sing sing sing melodies
And she sang sang sang sang sang sang melodies

Oh my Mama
She did give me fancy feet
I'll be dancing on
And I'll tap tap tap my toes
Into those creaking floorboards

Oh my Mama
She took my little hand and held on tight
Oh the Mamas
Give the waters of their wells
Oh the Mamas
Give the babies this very dirt we're walking on
Oh my Mama
She gave me these feathered breaths
And your Mama
She gave you those feathered breaths too

And when the sky drops all those feathers
And when the birds sing in the morning
I'll be a mama
I'll have a daughter
I'll be a mama
I'll have a daughter

And I'll give her melodies
I'll give her melodies
(repeat)

And she'll be
My little bird
And then she'll fly
She'll fly
