FOR NOW AND FOREVER LYRICS 1)For Now and Forever The day I left my childhood home Mamma looked me in the eye My Daddy spoke these words As he tried hard not to cry He said “No matter where life takes you In this world so wide and wild You’ll always be our baby Always be our precious child” Now I have children of my own And I want them to know They’re never alone Chorus: For now and forever, for the children For now and forever, I set the dream free For now and forever, I keep it together For now and forever, they’re counting on me I know a baby who loves me No matter what I’ll always be there I know a child who’s thinking of me We’ve got a life of love to share Chorus: repeat chorus I’ve got the power within me No matter what I can work for the day When I’ll see my children’s children Take every step of the way, the way Chorus: repeat chorus Now and forever We’re gonna keep that dream together They’re counting on me They’re counting on me © 2006, 2011 Growing Sound.
