Big Daddy Weave Album: What Life Would Be Like Track: From Here
From Here Lyrics
My child, I've hoped and I've prayed for this very day Since you were just a little one And oh how my heart swells with pride As I watch the man that you've become But this life offers no guarantees And though my time on this earth had to end I'm sure that your heart would know peace If you could just see where I am
From here, the race has been run and love's already won I see clearly the end and the start From here, I'm cheering you on So live out each breath with all that you've got And know until I hold you close I'll be holding you dear in my heart From here
I've seen your tears as you've waited alone Longing for that special one And now all the waiting is done As you gaze into her eyes Seeing the reflection of love Life's road may seem rough up ahead And for now you see only in part So hold onto each other and know That there is an end to the dark
Heaven is calling and my heart keeps longing Looking so forward to the day When we'll be together forever in eternity Just you wait and see
(Mike Weaver, Mark Schultz)
Song Description: "Buff has been one of our biggest supporters, encouragers, and friends since the beginning of Big Daddy Weave. Buff's mom died a few years ago. She was an amazing woman. When Buff got engaged to be married he asked if I'd be willing to write a special song for his wedding that would act as a remembrance for his mom. I had never written anything like this before. Fortunately, we were on tour with Mark Shultz, who is the master of these types of songs. He was an amazing teacher and his help on this song has given me even greater respect for the amazing songs he writes." - Mike Weaver (Big Daddy Weave)
