Yeah,
looking
back
through
the
years
Every
memory
is
painted
in
gold
This
is
for
you,
my
second
mother
I
was
only
eleven
months
when
I
landed
in
your
care
A
tiny
heart
in
a
big
world,
but
you
were
always
there
I
didn't
know
the
journey,
I
didn't
know
the
way
But
your
arms
were
a
fortress
keeping
shadows
at
bay
You
picked
me
up
when
I
stumbled,
you
guided
every
step
Keeping
all
the
promises
that
in
your
heart
you
kept
Bana
Zimba,
you
took
me
in
as
your
very
own
flesh
and
bone
In
the
warmth
of
your
house,
I
have
never
felt
alone
Oh,
what
can
I
pay
for
a
love
so
deep
and
wide?
With
you
as
my
shelter,
I
have
nothing
left
to
hide
May
the
heavens
bless
you,
add
more
years
to
your
life
You
were
my
steady
anchor
through
the
struggle
and
the
strife
Bana
Zimba,
my
second
mother,
my
heart
beats
for
you
Everything
you
sacrificed,
everything
you
do
When
I
went
wrong,
you
corrected
me
with
wisdom
in
your
eyes
Your
gentle
voice
was
the
truth
behind
all
of
my
cries
You
supported
all
my
dreams
when
I
had
nowhere
else
to
turn
Watching
me
grow,
watching
all
the
lessons
that
I
learn
From
the
baby
on
your
back
to
the
person
I
am
now
I
honor
you
today,
I
make
this
simple
sacred
vow
To
cherish
every
moment
that
we
have
within
the
sun
For
the
race
you
ran
for
me,
you
have
truly
won
Oh,
what
can
I
pay
for
a
love
so
deep
and
wide?
With
you
as
my
shelter,
I
have
nothing
left
to
hide
May
the
heavens
bless
you,
add
more
years
to
your
life
You
were
my
steady
anchor
through
the
struggle
and
the
strife
Bana
Zimba,
my
second
mother,
my
heart
beats
for
you
Everything
you
sacrificed,
everything
you
do
Time
keeps
rolling
like
a
river
to
the
sea
But
your
kindness
is
the
anchor
held
inside
of
me
Every
grey
hair
is
a
story,
every
line
upon
your
face
Is
a
map
of
the
love
that
held
me
in
your
grace
I
cannot
pay
you
back,
it's
a
debt
I'll
never
clear
But
I
thank
the
Lord
for
every
single
passing
year
So
let
the
music
play
for
all
the
things
you
had
to
do
To
build
a
bridge
of
hope
for
the
one
who
looks
to
you
You
are
the
garden
where
I
bloomed,
the
steady
winter
light
The
one
who
sang
the
songs
to
keep
me
safe
throughout
the
night
My
gratitude
is
endless,
my
love
is
standing
tall
Bana
Zimba,
you
answered
when
I
was
too
small
to
call
Oh,
what
can
I
pay
for
a
love
so
deep
and
wide?
With
you
as
my
shelter,
I
have
nothing
left
to
hide
May
the
heavens
bless
you,
add
more
years
to
your
life
You
were
my
steady
anchor
through
the
struggle
and
the
strife
Bana
Zimba,
my
second
mother,
my
heart
beats
for
you
Everything
you
sacrificed,
everything
you
do
Yeah,
you
are
my
second
mother
Bana
Zimba,
thank
you
May
God
keep
you,
may
God
bless
you
Longer
years,
more
joy
Just
love (
