My child, I've hoped and I've prayed for this very day
|
Since you were just a little one
|
And oh how my heart swells with pride
|
As I watch the man that you've become
|
But this life offers no guarantees
|
And though my time on this earth had to end
|
I'm sure that your heart would know peace
|
If you could just see where I am
|
|
From here, the race has been run and love's already won
|
I see clearly the end and the start
|
From here, I'm cheering you on
|
So live out each breath with all that you've got
|
And know until I hold you close
|
I'll be holding you dear in my heart
|
From here
|
|
I've seen your tears as you've waited alone
|
Longing for that special one
|
And now all the waiting is done
|
As you gaze into her eyes
|
Seeing the reflection of love
|
Life's road may seem rough up ahead
|
And for now you see only in part
|
So hold onto each other and know
|
That there is an end to the dark
|
|
Heaven is calling and my heart keeps longing
|
Looking so forward to the day
|
When we'll be together forever in eternity
|
Just you wait and see
|
|
