David Ryan Harris - Still Be Loving You lyrics

She rocked me back and forth 'til I quit crying. she looked into that baby face of mine and in an angels voice, she sang this lullaby until my slumber carried me into the night. "I'm grateful for these moments with you child. I know you're only mine to borrow for a while. soon youre gonna want to crawl away. it's in your nature. Its just how we were made. but I will still be loving you" She had wished for us a normal family life but 4 became my brother, she and I. Times were hard for us but somehow we got by. She was fearless through her tears and sacrifice I had to grow up much faster than she would have liked but when she knew that she had taught me wrong from right she said "go on, I know you need to move away. childhood is manhood slightly delayed, but I will still be loving you" I left home to try and find my way Like a blind man feeling his way through a maze. I love and lose befriend but not betray because the things you taught inform how I behave. In my darkest hours when I am afraid or I'm not sure that I can take another day I remember the one promise that you made, "If the whole world shuts you down it'll be okay. cause I will still be loving you" Now that I'm a man I realize what a gift it has been to have you in my life. Your spirit is young although your body is tired and soon for good you'll have to close your eyes the years around your body like a weight. I guess that too is just how we are made, so when the angels come and carry you away may they whisper in your ears, my serenade. I will still be loving you.
