It makes sense to me too, Colin.

'Oh my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me'

Think about those lyrics in relation to Joni's giving up that child.
It's been a long, lonely time since she carried that baby.  Time has
gone by and that baby is not a baby anymore.  Time can do so much.
Can she really say that the child is hers anymore?  (Are you still
mine?).  She needs to be reconnected.  She longs for that love that
she's never known and prays she will have it one day.

I completely agree with you, Colin.
