Each and every day

The gift you gave away

never left your heart

From the day you had to part 

he stayed with you

Each and every day

Through the years

you've wondered all the way

how life would've been

if he'd got to stay

Each and every day

The pain of regret

you didn't know you'd feel

eats away at your soul

never far away

Each and every day

"Please forgive me!" 

you cry out in the dark

How were you to know

you'd meet, and see the toes

of the one you gave away

And you cry - Dear Lord in Heaven 

take care of my dear child

till the day I run to meet him, 

and I hold him in my arms

Each and every day
