dear child Lyrics by Nico Santos

I thought I knew my purpose
Until I saw your face
Some things you cannot learn
Crazy how a life can change

I left no chance to run wild
Not thinking ’bout the roads I’d take
And, overnight, it all turns fragile
Oh, how life comes your way

When you put your head upon my shoulder
My universe, now, turns for you

Oh
You showed me what love can feel like
Oh
You showed me what love can feel like
Oh
The only thing I’ve ever done right
Oh
You showed me what love can feel like

I’m seeing myself in whatever you do
You’re learning go walk, and I’m learning it too
I never thought something so small could save me
Ain’t it crazy?

Oh
With every second, now, that you get older
I’ve got a second more to lose

Oh
You showed me what love can feel like
Oh
You showed me what love can feel like
Oh
The only thing I’ve ever done right
Oh
You showed me what love can feel like

Wherever you go
I’m watching you grow
Wish I could slow it down
And if you get lost
Just so you know
I’ll always be around

Been out on the run
For way too long
Yeah
I know now where I belong

Oh
You showed me what love can feel like
Oh
You showed me what love can feel like
Oh
The only thing I’ve ever done right
Oh
You showed me what love can feel like
