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, rejectedLove child, never meant to be
Love child, born in poverty
Love child, never meant to be
Love child, take a look at meI 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 nameThis love we're contemplating
Is worth the pain of waiting
We'll only end up hating
The child we maybe creatingLove child, never meant to be
Love child, society
(Scorned by)
Love child, always second best
Love child, different from the restMm, baby
(Hold on, hold on, just a little bit)
Mm, baby
(Hold on, hold on, just a little bit)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
Sop afraid my friends would see the guilt in meDon'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 wearingLove child, love child, never quite as good
Afraid, ashamed, misunderstoodBut 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
