Susan Schreer Davis - Always My Child Lyrics

I've known all along
This day would come
But I can't believe it's now
If I could turn back the time
Press rewind
You know I'd do it some how
Just to hold you a little bit longer
And pretend you're mine
But I know you have grown stronger
And it's your time to fly
So as you head off to the great unknown
Remember you will always have a place to call home
And I hope you'll visit from time to time
As you head off to the great unknown
Remember you're a piece of me that I am fond of
And you'll never ever be far from my mind
Cause no matter how far you go
You're always my child
It's clear looking back
I made mistakes
That I wish I could erase
Each ill spoken word
The noise that you heard
When my life fell out of place
But even then in the quiet of the moonlight
When peace rushed in
Memories of all our good times
Got me going again
So as you head off to the great unknown
Remember you will always have a place to call home
And I hope you'll visit from time to time
As you head off to the great unknown
Remember you're a piece of me that I am fond of
And you'll never ever be far from my mind
Cause no matter how far you go
You're always my child
So pack your bag
Load the car
Get on out of here
Don't look back
Cause you know I might shed a tear
Do your thing
Make your mark
Don't give into fear
But if it all comes crashing down
Don't forget I'm here
Cause as you head off to the great unknown
I will always have a place for you to call home
And I hope you'll visit from time to time
As you head off to the great unknown
Remember you're a piece of me that I am fond of
And you'll never ever be far from my mind
Cause no matter how far you go
No matter how far you roam
No matter how far you go
You're always my child
Always my child
