It was around 99
when my biggest worry was the wrong note daddy working late for me and you
you made sacrifices paid your dues
never realised, how you had to strive
just to make enough,
now i’m looking at my rear-view
i had it all, wish I gave your flowers then
There’s been times my hearts so heavy couldn’t get outta bed,
I got these emotions,
I don’t know how to express
can’t put a price on, what your love meant where you are is home
I know you’re loving this view
(I pray you’re loving this view) mama I do this for you (mama I)
I hear you loud over whisper crowds cos your love is all it takes
I know you’re loving this view
Yeah, eh,
the fame and the fortune
mean nothing without my number one,
you were the fire within you
and you passed the torch to me
it’s you I wanna run to when I have won
hope that you are proud of me no matter what, I’m touching souls around me
the way you did for me cos I know it goes beyond
There’s been times my hearts so heavy couldn’t get outta bed,
I got these emotions,
I don’t know how to express
can’t put a price on, what your love meant where you are is home
I know you’re loving this view
(I pray you’re loving this view)
mama I do this for you (mama I)
I hear you loud over screaming crowds cos your love is all it takes
I know you’re loving this view
Head under water
Is this my last breath
maybe the lord had other plans cos I know, I know, I know, when I prayed for better days you go and melt this pain away now I’m letting go,
put it all in every note
I know you’re loving this view
(I pray you’re loving this view)
mama I do this for you (mama I)
I hear you loud over screaming crowds a whisper is all it takes
cos your love is all it takes
I know you’re loving this view
My voice starts to break my heart feels heavy,
just of the thought of you
I can't feel some of your footprints I can't fit your shoes
but I'll forever walk for you,
and is it alright mum
that I can't forgive myself for not doing more for you
but I promise you,
I'd never stop writing
and I just some how pray the words are alright for you
because between the lines
of my aching heart on my broken mind
I dedicate my lonely love all for you.
