Post Christmas Babe
This gonna be real personal piece
looking back to my early influence
born on December 27th so very true
living in Scottish countryside made sense
Was adopted 6 weeks after birth
not knowing my original parents at all
but learned well about life as a child
how to be on my own with a ball
I learned well how to be amused
just single alone but was content
with a stammer as well such a block
but this was my destiny I'd been sent
Used to wonder much of eternal things
where is God? what's He like? I'd ask
but these answers were for another day
till when the good Lord removes His mask
Through life's events was shy and quiet
my personality being reserved and laid back
but fears reigned within and without
invisibly heaven's finger kept me on track
