From Underneath

Hawk Nelson

From underneath

I wanted you

To see the first thing that I ever poured my heart into

You'll never know the pain that I've been through

I'm not so sure you'll ever know

So I'll make you understand the words that build my life

Were not from you but from my Father's hand



Do you remember

That cold day in December

Leaving everything you knew behind



I may never know how it feels to stand beside you

To hold your hand

Where I need some direction

And I may never know what it's like to see you smile

Like I need

Or know you'd be proud of me



From underneath

I promise to

Erase the past and let my heart forget the former you

Replace the dark of old and start brand new

I never thought I'd see this day

I'd walk toward the end of life and turn the other way

I'm reaching out to take my Father's hand



Do you remember

That cold day in December

Leaving everything you knew behind



I may never know how it feels to stand beside you

To hold your hand

Where I need some direction

And I may never know what it's like to see you smile

Like I need

Or know you'd be proud of me
