(chorus)
Oh child
I hope you know
That you don't ever have to walk this world alone
Oh child
I wish I could have
Had the chance to help you grow into a burning flame in this world so cold
Oh child
Oh child of mine
Why have we lost all these years
I should have been around to be there
To help you fight away all your fears
Oh child
Please forgive me
I never wanted to let you go
I never meant to give up like I did
I should have fought harder but how was I supposed to know
That I wouldn't get to see you grow
And it takes me up
From the inside out in ripped apart
I pray you never had to feel the same hurt
Or feel this same broken heart
I'm still waiting for my life to start
Cus I've been lost
Since we've been apart
No matter how hard I've tried
Nothing else in this world ever seems to mend this broken heart
(chorus)
Oh child
I hope you know
That you don't ever have to walk this world alone
Oh child
I wish I could have
Had the chance to help you grow into a burning flame in this world so cold
Oh child
Oh child of mine
Why have we lost all these years
I should have been around to be there
To help you fight away all your fears
Oh child
Look at how gorgeous you are
I'm so proud of the lady you've become this far
I'm amazed by everything you achieve
I'm so sorry that this is how our life's have to be
But I'm thankful for the life that you've been given
In my eyes as a parent I'm still somehow winning
Getting to see you all grow from a far
I know trying to make sense of it all had to be hard
But look at you go so far
Nothin is stopping you
I wish you could hear me say I'm so proud of you
(chorus)
Oh child
I hope you know
That you don't ever have to walk this world alone
Oh child
I wish I could have
Had the chance to help you grow into a burning flame in this world so cold
Oh child
