My daughter, Lauren Kate, is working on the guitar instrumental track for this song and we&#8217;ll add it at a later date. You see, she is a songwriter\/singer as well. In fact, we are very similar in a lot of things even though she has never known me other than that brief moment when I held her and prayed for her.<\/p>\n<p>This is our song. It&#8217;s a song of hope and restoration. We are still on this journey discovering who we are to each other. I didn&#8217;t realize how huge of a gaping hole was in my heart until the Lord began to heal it. It was breathtaking sometimes as I struggled with so many things from that past. Forgiveness can bring the healing and it&#8217;s certainly what is happening.<\/p>\n<p>27 YEARS AGO (Lyrics)     \u00a9 08.20.18 All rights reserved.

Newborn baby so innocently<br \/>\nThen you were gone you were gone<\/p>\n<p>(CHORUS)<br \/>\nIf I just knew then what I do know now<br \/>\nMaybe I would have done something different somehow<br \/>\nHindsight is always 20\/20<br \/>\nPeople judging what they don\u2019t understand<br \/>\nTime goes by without a reply. 27 years ago<\/p>\n<p>Praying for you all through the years<br \/>\nSaying happy birthday just hoping you\u2019d hear. It\u2019s a long road<br \/>\nLonging for the day to see how you\u2019ve been. To see your smile once again<br \/>\nAnd then I did. See your smile<\/p>\n<p>Now you\u2019re grown, we\u2019re starting again<br \/>\nFilling in some pieces let the healing begin. It\u2019s a long road<br \/>\nPraying for you just wanting the best.
