Love Child Lyrics - Faith Hill

Tenement slum 

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ah 

You think that I don't feel love 

But what I feel for you is real love 

In other's eyes I see reflected 

A hurt, scorned and rejected 

Love child, never meant to be 

Love child, born in poverty 

Love child, never meant to be 

Love child, take a look at me 

I started my life in an old, cold run down tenement slum 

My father left 

He never even married mom 

I shared the guilt my mama knew 

So afraid that others knew I had no name

This love we're contemplating 

Is worth the pain of waiting 

We'll only end up hating 

The child we maybe creating 

Love child, never meant to be 

Love child, scorned by society 

Love child, always second best 

Love child, different from the rest 

Hold on 

Hold on (Ooooooohhh) 

I started school, in a worn, torn, 

Dress that somebody threw out 

I knew the way it felt, to always live in doubt 

To be without the simple things 

So afraid my friends would see the guilt in me

Don't think that I don't need you 

Don't think I don't wanna please you 

No child of mine 'll be bearing 

The name of shame I've been wearing 

Love child, never quite as good 

Afraid 

Ashamed 

Misunderstood 

But I'll always love you 

I'll always love you 

I'll always love you 

I'll always love you 

I'll always love you 

I'll always love you 

You-ooo-ooo 

You-ooo-ooo 

You-ooo-ooo
