A mother's promise

Finally found this track yesterday. Love this song! It's basically my promise to my baby, myself and everyone in my life that has been there for me. Footprints in the Sand by Leona Lewis is a very powerful track and without it playing in my ear for the last 2 days, I wouldn't have been able to realise some important things. Yes, God has blessed me enough to give me a child and if it's the last thing I do, I will always be there for her no matter how rough life gets, how long the road is and even how much of myself I must sacrifice. The beauty of unconditional love...

You walked with me

Footprints in the sand

And helped me understand

Where I’m going

You walked with me

When I was all alone

With so much I no along the way

Then I heard you say

I promise you

I’m always there

When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair

I’ll carry you

When you need a friend

You’ll find my footprints in the sand

I see my life

Flash across the sky

So many times have I

Been so afraid ooh

And just when I

Have thought I’ve lost my way

You give me strength to carry on

That’s when I heard you say

I promise you

I’m always there

When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair

I’ll carry you

When you need a friend

You’ll find my footprints in the sand

When I’m weary

Well I no you’ll be there

And I can feel you

When you say

I promise you

I’m always there

When your heart is full of sadness and despair

I’ll carry you

When you need a friend

You’ll find my footprints in the sand x 2
