Shaggy - Letter To My Kids

Ya, I gotta get real personal on this ya know, for me.
screamin out two things.
When I was young my ambition in life was
to finish way ahead of the game,
such a shame ya`ll payin the price in this
race of fortune and fame,
I really feel appologetic inside,
though youd never think to give me the blame,
its when I look into your lives I wonder if
it was really worth all the pain
Now I know what it takes,
in the heights of mistakes,
is it there in the mind of a child,
though its all for our sakes,
still my heart how it breaks,
everytime that I see your smile,
Check it
Conversation on the phone is fine but
for me it could never replace,
being there to spend quality time tuck you in
to see the smile on your face,
so when youre old enough to read these lines
I hope you never find yourself in my place,
I hope you never feel as lonely as I and
miss the warmth of your childs embrace.
Now I know what it takes, in the heights of mistakes,
is it there in the mind of a child no no no no
though its all for our sakes,
still my heart how it breaks, everytime that I see your smile
Now I know what it takes, in the heights of mistakes,
is it there in the mind of a child (no no no no),
though its all for our sakes,
still my heart how it breaks,
everytime that I see your smile
Now I know what it takes,
in the heights of mistakes,
is it there in the mind of a child,
though its all for our sakes,
