Believer (In loving memory)

In loving memory of my family

The man and woman who created me

My father killed it as he walked away

Another woman and a vow before God betrayed

I couldn't see that it was going wrong

Was too naive to see the love was gone

And every morning as they'd kiss goodbye

I couldn't see that they were living separate lives

Well I'd like to say I feel this much is true

That the person that is me is all because of you

And it's taken many years for me to find

Any peace in my heart and my mind

But hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, I'm still a believer

My feet are still on the ground where you put me down

There's still a life after you

Year there's still a love that feels true

But a future can only begin in forgiving your sin

There are many things that I would like to know

Is there a hurt in you that doesn't show?

And do you miss the things you've left behind?

Or are we just another memory in your mind?

If you had gone to build a life more true

The my ideals might still reside in you

But all you did was find a life outside

And repatriation was to swallow too much pride

Well I'd like to feel a lesson you had learned

That just one time that pain inside had burned

But I have learned the judgement isn't mine

Coz this curse could be in my bloodline

But hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, I'm still a believer

My feet are still on the ground where you put me down

There's still a life after you

Year there's still a love that feels true

But a future can only begin in forgiving

You be a mother, I'll be a father

All together, happy family

That's the way I always thought it should be

In reality I've begun to see

That it rarely happens intentionally

When the doctor told her it shocked her

Oh well, let's have three!

Well I'd like to say I feel this much is true

That the person that is me is all because of you
