Stephanie Smith - First Words

It was the freshman year of my high school career

Things had barely gotten underway

Before my innocence would be betrayed

Starting with a phone call, a family member dies

And at the funeral I looked into your eyes

For the first time, this was a dream of mine

But you didn’t know me, you didn’t know my name

The first words you spoke to me

Since you left my family

You didn’t call me Stephanie

This will take some getting over don’t you agree

But now I’m here

I know it’s been a few years

I’ve shed a few tears

and now I have a few things to say

When we met, you broke my heart

14 years old and you tore me apart

But that aside, please know I love you

And more than that, I forgive you

Meeting at a truck stop for lunch

We covered basics, let’s keep in touch

Not even a week later, a letter in the mail

You think it’s better to let this fail

Another attempt to get to know my father

Efforts exhausted, why did I bother

The first words you wrote to me

Since I made you family

They worried me to the worse degree

This will take some getting over don’t you agree

But now I’m here

And now it’s been a few years

I’ve shed a few tears

and now I have a few things to say

When we met, you broke my heart

19 years old and you tore me apart

But that aside, please know I love you

And more than that, I forgive you

I forgive you

I forgive you
