about

This song by a father for his daughter on her birthday.

lyrics

I sit up late and contemplate, the meaning of life, creation, my fate
For the time has come for awaken debate
The internal clock is asking, what is my fate?
What is my fate?

The gift of life is a knowing I’ve had
A knowing so strong thought it was there for the taking
Yet I sit up late and contemplate
What is my fate, what is my fate?

Then I remember, yes I remember, that

Chorus:
India’s healed me Dadda
India’s healed my soul
India’s healed me Papa
And I already know, yes I already know

Cause if we walk in our own truth
Then things just come, there is no need for anything to
Hold us back or close an embrace
The love we need is there for the taking
When we find the truth that’s in our souls
The gift that is life, nature, love, greatness, everything
Falls into place with an ease that’s grace, with an ease that’s grace

And I remember, ohhh, yes I remember,

Chorus
That India’s healed me Dadda
India’s healed my soul
India’s healed me Papa
And I already know, yes I already know

So let’s find the truth that’s in our souls,
Let’s find the truth that’s in our souls
Cause there’s a gift that is life, nature, love, greatness, everything
Yes that gift that is life, nature, love greatness everything, so I remember

Chorus
That India’s healed me Dadda
India’s healed my soul
India’s healed me Papa, ohhhhh
And I already know, yes I already know
I already know
