Love Child Lyrics & Tabs by Melissa Etheridge
Love Child
guitar chords lyrics
You think that I don't feel love
What I feel for you is real love
In other's eyes I see reflected a hurt
Scorn rejected
Love child
Never meant to be
Love child
By society
Love child
Never meant to be
Love child
Take a look at me
I stand in my life
In an old cold rundown tenement slum
My father left he never even married mom
I stand in my life
In an old cold rundown tenement slum
My father left he never even married mom
I shared the guilt my mother knew
So afraid that others knew I had no name
I was over contemplating(?)
Is it worth the pain of waiting
We'd only end up hating
This child that we'd be creating
Love child
Never meant to be
Love child
By society
Love child
Always second best
Love child
Different from the rest
I started at school
In a worn torn dress somebody threw out
I knew the way it felt to always live in doubt
To be without the simple things
So afraid that others knew I had no name
Don't think that I don't need you
Don't think I don't want to please you
But no child of mine will be wearing
This name of shame I've been bearing
Love child
Never meant to be
Love child
Born in poverty
Oh love child
Never quite as good
Oh love child
Misunderstood
I'll always love you
I'll always love you
You, you
I'll always, I'll always love you
