Intro
They say time heals... But some distances don't get shorter. This is for my son...Blessing Atapa
Verse 1
I was lost in the journey of life, far away from home, millions mile away from parents, I got confused, I lost hope in life itself, I couldn't see how to take the step of forwardness, rather all I see is emptiness. On a dying day, A light shinned on me, the brighter light of angel, sent by the most high God, to redeem, showed and gave me a joyous life in christ. My dying life became a well fulfilled happy life, you made a father, a well-known man in society and brought to me an eternal life in christ.
Pre-Chorus
I was learning how to dream again, Learning how to trust, Then everything we built together Turned back into dust.
Chorus
You changed something in me, Something I thought was gone, You taught this heart to hope again, When I'd been hurting so long.
Now you're far away with our little boy, And I'm trying to stay strong, You changed something in me, Something I thought was gone.
Verse 2
September's coming closer, You'll be three years old, I wonder if you think of me, Or if new memories unfold.
Do you still laugh when you wake up, Do you still reach for someone's hand, If you ever ask about your father, I hope they'll help you understand.
Bridge
One day when you're older, Maybe you'll hear this song, And know that through the silence, My love was there all along.
I couldn't hold you every night, I couldn't watch you grow, But not a single day has passed Without me missing you so.
Chorus
You changed something in me, Something I thought was gone, You taught this heart to hope again, When I'd been hurting so long.
Now you're far away with our little boy, And I'm trying to stay strong, You changed something in me, Something I thought was gone.
You changed something in me...
And son, YOU STLL DO....
