This one is for my family 🙂  I hear the song already – just need to make some time to work on these lyrics.  I have lots of the lyrics in my mind

Writing for my family is heart wrenching…I get very emotional.  I love my family so very much it’s so hard to put it into words…into song.

First Draft 

V1

Mum you were there to guide me along

You held my hand n helped me stand

Picked me up when I grazed my skin

There when I felt like giving in

Watchin as I played in band

Waitin while the sun went down

And when I couldn’t make a sound

You were always there to understand

Cookin craftin knittin sewin

Always remind me of your love

Mum you never scrapped my book

Even when I got life wrong

Oh no you never gave in on me

Never gave up on me

Ch

You were always there, you’re still here now

You’ll always be, always be, always be

And it wasn’t just for me

You did this all for me Times Three

For my brother sister and for me

You gave your love for free

You gave your love Times Three

V2

Dad you were there to make me strong

You helped me man my mic stand

Clipped me up to your safety pin

There when I felt like a livin sin

Watchin as I hit the sand

Waitin while my car broke down

And when my feet left the ground

You were always there to understand

Fishin findin writin climbin

Always remind me of your love

Dad you never snapped my hook

Even when I got life wrong

Oh no you never caved in on me

Never gave up on me
