Mylin Brooks - Love Child lyrics

rate me

Daddy was young - gone before you ever were born

Mama gave up - couldn't keep a baby alone

And as hard as she tried

She couldn't give you every need

'cause the times they were bad

With another mouth to feed

*Love Child - no one ever loved you

Love Child - nobody there to hold you

Open your eyes and see that I love you

I'll give you everything you need

Love Child - love is our protection

Love Child - we'll find a new direction

Safe in each other's arms - let's fly away

All your life - had to make it all on your own

Pain and strife never seemed to leave you alone

There was so little joy - never had a helping hand

So a poor little boy had to learn to be a man

*Repeat

I know that it's so very hard

You have so many bad memories

Take my heart and the love I give you

Love child - won't you listen to me

*Repeat
