Ester Nicholson: Music

Child Above the Sun

I walked the streets at dawn
I've been up all night
I'm still coming down '
From yesterday's high

I'm all shaken up
My heart is feeling sad
For the love that I've wasted
And the life that I never had

And I think of you, my father
Are you ashamed of me
And I hear your voice in my soul
Whispering

Child above the sun
I know what you've done
I see who you are
And all that's in your heart
Child above the sun
No matter what you do
I'll keep this candle burning
Watching over you
Child above the sun

It brings me to my knees
This love you feel for me
When I'd almost given up
It was you who still believed
Shining down on me
Pure eternal light
In the rhythm of my heart
It was you there all the time

So thank you, my father
For standing next to me
Through every moment of my life
Whispering

Here in my heart
I feel your every breath
I'm sending you this neverending love
