Lyrics:G.Lesage/C.Dannemiller Music:G.Lesage/C.Dannemiller I watched you begin, my child, See you fading in your father face. For the first time I in the mirror, looking both ways At where Ie been and where I headed It makes me want to live each day like I may not get it. Dear Life, from my very first breath, You were one step ahead Of where I thought I was going Dear Life,when I loved and I lost Somehow at all cost You kept me holdin?on, for Dear Life, through the healing and scars Through all youe showed me so far I see how precious you are, Dear Life. I was bound to give away my heart and have it handed back to me Until you led me to the one that was always meant to be Ie never known joy if I never knew sorrow When I didn know how to face tomorrow Dear Life, from my very first breath, You were one step ahead Of where I thought I was going Dear Life,when I loved and I lost Somehow at all cost You kept me holdin?on, for Dear Life, through the healing and scars Through all youe showed me so far I see how precious you are, Dear Life. For once I gonna rest in the arms of the unknown And wait to watch you unfold Dear Life, from my very first breath, You were one step ahead Of where I thought I was going Dear Life,when I loved and I lost Somehow at all cost You kept me holdin?on, for Dear Life, through the healing and scars Through all youe showed me so far I see how precious you are, Dear Life.
