Thanks For My Child Lyrics

Cheryl Pepsi Riley Thanks For My Child

You came into my life, You just made everything right.
And even though my man has left me behind,
I don't regret a thing for having you.

Thanks for my child,
(Thanks for my child)
You brought me so much joy
This bundle of love
(Thanks for my child)
And though your father, He ran away free.
The love I have for you baby, Is the love I have in me

I'll stay and watch you grow, Yes I will!
I'll raise you by myself, one woman show.
You made life worth singing a song
(You made life worth singing a song)
With you right here with me,
I'll have the strength to go on.

(Thanks for my child)
You brought me so much joy, this bundle of love
(Thanks for my child)
I'll hold you in my arms, I'll hold you close to me
I'll rock-a-bye my baby, I'll rock you to sleep

I understand your language, Your baby talk
You've got to crawl, Before you walk
There you are just looking so beautiful
And all the while, you're wrapped in blankets
You are my love child.

Thanks for my child
Here we are today, the years go on by
You grew before my eyes, time after time
And though your daddy, he ran away free
The love I have for you baby
Is the love I have in me, Inside of me
The love I have in me
I just know, I'll never let you go, no, no
No, no, no, oh yeah
Cause you're my sweet baby
Papa can't preach, Papa was a rolling stone because
He left his beautiful, Cause he left, us alone
But that's OK cause I'm you mother baby
I carried you for 9 months, And I'm gonna carry you
Until you can carry yourself On your own
I love you sweetheart, (child) I love you too mommy!
