You'll Always Be my Baby - Sara Evans

I have a baby I love as my own. My life revolves around him. I find meaning in my life serving him, loving him.

He loves being around me and though at times it is hard to discipline him, he is so sweet most of the time. He showers me with kisses as he leaves for school.  He hugs me from the back whenever I bring something or buy him toys or other little things.

Those scenes pricks my heart with love. That's what we tell each other every night before going to bed.

I love you ma. I love you too anak (my child).

He is not mine and I let him know that I am his substitute mother because he has to know.  And I plan to let him go whenever he is ready and if he would ask me to. I told him I won't deny his freedom if he wants to go somewhere else.

He wants to be a pilot... and I know expenses for flying school is expensive. I will leave it to tomorrow and pray he changes his mind. If not, I will have to be prepared.

And I love him so... and to you my child,

You'll Always Be my Baby

There I was, ten years old
Waiting in my room for him to come home
I just knew he'd be so mad
Though I begged my mother not to, she told my dad

There was no denying I let him down
But instead of being angry
He put his arms around me and said

In the sunlight or the rain
Brightest nights or darkest days
I'll always feel the same way
Whatever road you may be on
No, you're never too far gone
My love is there wherever you may be
Just remember that you'll always be my baby

There I was, 21
Oh, I was so ashamed of what I'd done
On a country road parked one night
What started out so innocent, crossed the line

There was no denying, I let God down
But instead of being angry
He let His love surround me, and I heard

In the sunlight or the rain
Brightest nights or darkest days
I'll always feel the same way
Whatever road you may be on
No, you're never too far gone
My love is there wherever you may be
Just remember that you'll always be my baby
Yeah, yeah

There he is, my little man
I'm sure he'll get in trouble every now and then
And I pray to God that when he does
I'll be just as understanding as my father was

'Cause the last thing that I want to do is let him down
So instead of being angry
I'm gonna throw my arms around him, and I'll say

In the sunlight or the rain
Brightest nights or darkest days
I'll always feel the same way
Whatever road you may be on
No, you're never too far gone
My love is there wherever you may be
Just remember that you'll always be my baby
Be my baby
