If anyone has evey been forcibly removed from family before then they would appreciate the sentiment of this song. There is more than just blood, sweat and tears within the theme here. The approach to the baby is as if it's dead. However, picture it being alive, taken for adoption. The mother is enduring the struggle herself and is also projecting into the future...
Out there in the dark your little spirit is lost without a home
Oh don't be afraid I'm thinking of you, no you'll never be alone
Someday, somehow, when the time is right
May an angel smile upon me and give you life
... So when the possibility of life comes back into the song I think there is a hope that the child will be rewarded by the love, joy and bonding that occurs during the bloody, sweaty, tearful process of childbirth is complete. It's like she was wishing for her child what she experienced before having lost them. This could apply in reverse, if an orphan considered the feelings of the parent, surely they would have wished for their parents another opportunity for creating life.
I don't know for sure so anyone please share with me their ideas. I never wanted children until recently. I actually haven't thought about the issues surrounding unplanned births, adoption, miscarriage, abortion or still births as sensitively until now, assuming that parents were too irresponsible for having unexpected pregnancies that sometimes created these problems. But I have been blessed with the opportunity of creating life and would equally want everybody to be able to experience that joy. Beyond that there can only be honest intentions, else judgement is inevitable.
