I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve given me
the courage to grieve
as you led me through forgotten memory
Chorus: Guiding my hand
facing ghosts of long ago buried in this wasteland
the journey she denied . . . the tears we should’ve cried . . .
the love laid down and died . . .
withdrawn long before it was time . . .
such a crime . . .
Now here you are giving to me all that she couldn’t be
She never said goodbye
the children didn’t ask why
but when in bed alone they’d cry
prayin’ that she wouldn’t have to die
Chorus: Guiding my hand
facing ghosts of long ago buried in this wasteland
the journey she denied . . . the tears we should’ve cried . . .
the love laid down and died . . .
withdrawn long before it was time . . .
such a crime . . .
Now here you are giving to me all that she couldn’t be
I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve give me
the power to be free
by listenin’ to the wounded child in me
being my friend, knowing on you I can depend
the rage no more denied
suppressed feelings now brought into the light
creating a space open wide
where sleeping dreams no longer hide
thank God I’m alive . . .
I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve given me
