Shaggy - Letter to My Kids lyrics

Ya, I gotta get real personal
On this ya know, for me
? Screamin out two things

When I was young my ambition in life was
To finish way ahead of the game
Such a shame ya'll payin the price in
This race of fortune and fame
I really feel appologetic inside
Though youd never think to give me the blame
Its when I look into your lives I wonder
If it was really worth all the pain

Now I know what it takes
In the heights of mistakes
Is it there in the mind of a child
Though it's all for our sakes
Still my heart how it breaks
Everytime that I see your smile (Check it)

Conversation on the phone is fine but
For me it could never replace
Being there to spend quality time tuck you in
To see the smile on your face
So when youre old enough to
Read these lines I
Hope you never find yourself in my place
I hope you never feel as lonely as I
And miss the warmth of your childs embrace

Now I know what it takes
In the heights of mistakes
Is it there in the mind of a child
(no no no no) though it's all for our sakes
Still my heart how it breaks
Everytime that I see your smile

Now I know what it takes
In the heights of mistakes
Is it there in the mind of a child
(no no no no) though it's all for our sakes
Still my heart how it breaks
Everytime that I see your smile

Now I know what it takes
In the heights of mistakes
Is it there in the mind of a child
Though it's all for our sakes
Still my heart how it breaks
Everytime that I see your smile
