Lyrics
All These Things (I Wish For You)
Patricia Baker, BMI/Nadia Cripps2009
Gemma Louise Edwards (vocals)
I know my little one
The scars you pretend to hide
Your quiet bravado
Just tears me up inside
Remember you were
Conceived by two in love
Divorce papers don't
Prove the stuff you're made of
Chorus
Just because we made mistakes
Doesn't mean you have to
Only the best I wish for you
Open doors you can breeze through
With an open mind, forgiving heart
May all your dreams come true
All these things I wish for you
Who knew at eighteen
You'd be so beautiful
So full of life and wide eyed
Fresh out of high school
For you the future
Is full of the unknown
And pretty soon you'll make
Mem'ries of your very own
Bridge
Hope you'll find the courage and the wisdom
When you're faced with tough decisions
And have the time of your life along the way
Repeat Chorus
