searched my whole life for the
perfect man,
No one seemed to measure up and I didn't understand,
why part of me was empty, why part of me felt cold.
Would it be this way forever, wouId I feel the same when I'm old.
After searching my whole life, the perfect man I couldn't see.
I couldn't take it anymore, and said Lord help me please.
He said look deep inside you the answer was always there.
I couldn't tell you how to feel it's your cross to bear.
I did as a lord had asked, and looked deep inside.
A calmness on overwhelmed me, and my heart was filled with pride.
The answer was always there,
the truth I always had.
I didn't have to look at all,
The perfect man is my dad.
I'm loving memory of my dad Lawrence Carter.
