Oh child of mine
I fell into your life
With not a single gift but love
Try, try as I might to lead you and do alright
No single day goes by where I don't fail you
Know that my heart is desperate to see you win at life
This is my song as you struggle on with me
Oh if only you knew my heart for you
Time turns, growth hurts
Love inside me for you is still unchanging
Every one of my words
Created to do no harm
Encourage and guide you on in love
The creaking of my bones bring on no bitterness
I’m just glad that I have you
Know that my heart is desperate to see you win at life
This is my song as you struggle on with me
Oh if only you knew my heart for you
Time turns, growth hurts
Love inside me for you is still unchanging
Take these words and lay them high
Upon your breast remember why
I gave you all that I could bring
I gave you my everything
