Solid Ground - Original Song (C)08 by mcmillinhome

I wrote this song to my parents awhile back - it means alot to them and me as well. I hope you enjoy.

Lyrics:

how many times
have i let you down
equals the times
you let me back around
mama and papa
i cant find the words to say
all the learning
all the loving
all the losin
all i gained along the way

and i do recall
the way you
helped me throught it all
the empty spaces
and broken places
your were always there
and never let me fall

so i'm sorry
for all the nights i didnt call
guess my selfish pride
who i was inside
just one more try
seemed to out weigh it all

and to my mama
we nearly lost you a year ago
i didnt blink and eye
wouldnt even cry
couldnt stand to think
of our life with you gone
not gone
and to my daddy
the strongest man i've ever know
through frustration and aggrevation
all your love
helped turn this house into a home
our home

there where times i lost my way
but would bring me back around
and when my world was way too fast
you were my solid ground
always solid
solid ground

so i want to thank you
from the bottom of my heart
please forgive me youll have to give me
the rest of my life cause i dont know where to start

please forgive me
youll have to give me
the rest of my life
cause i dont know where to start
