vs1:

I sometimes wonder how my life would be

If we gave you a chance to see what life could be

Some things I guess I'll never know

I always wondered how your life would be

Would you take after your mother or look just like me

I know by now you'll be 8 years old

It was such a long time ago

So many things we did not know

Sorry I couldn't hear your cry

And if we had a second chance to make

We would pray we had a change of heart

And we would see how beautiful you are

But we didn't so I'm singing



Hook:

Sorry child

I let you down

Forgive me child

For I too was just a child

I tried my best to put the past behind

Trying to forgive myself and live my life

But I couldn't seem to let go

Visions of you and what you could have been

Kept the pain of sin coming back again

Steady tearing at my soul

So father hear this prayer I pray

I hope to see their face someday

When I reach those heavenly doors

And I'm not the boy I was back then

God has forgiven me and made me a man

And I'm ready to press on



Hook:

Sorry child

I let you down

Forgive me child
For I too was just a child
