Текст песни
Things you used to say
I think I finally understand them now
Your voice, whispering through the phone
Suddenly became a light within me
Along the winding road I've walked so long
Like a wildflower blooming out of nowhere
In the hollows carved by my regrets
Only time flowed on in silence
While my restless heart kept rushing ahead
Love stayed behind, and slowly learned its way
It was a journey through time
Those years I spent raising you
Looking back, the soul I was nurturing
Was my own past and my own future
I came to understand the love I had received
And saw that you were always my hope
Walking this life road, hand in hand with you
It was a miracle, a journey of grace
It was a journey through time
Those years I spent raising you
Looking back, the soul I was nurturing
Was my own past and my own future
From the tree planted deep in my chest
You grew into a vibrant, green branch
Fruits that endured harsh seasons
Became the light of my life
This lifelong ID of a parent, with no expiration date
I quietly set it down now, and let it go
The days you and I shared together
A journey that was taking care of me
