Fatherless Child — Nikka Costa

Heaven spoke too loud Left me a fatherless child Occurs to me everyday But your memory makes me proud You're the one I hold You're the first man I loved And all that follow Have a mountain to rise above

And there's a hole inside of me Where I put flowers so I can breathe And though the winters have come and gone You're still my heart, you're still my sun

Somehow I always knew What I lost was never gone 'Cause there's a part of you Inside of me that carries on

And there's a hole inside of me Where I put flowers so I can breathe And though the winters have come and gone You're still my heart, you're still my sun

Heaven spoke too loud Left me a fatherless child And there are time you know I really wish you were around

And I'll try to make you proud 'Cause you're the break in every cloud And I'm convinced that's why The sun shine on me
