    Chorus:
    I did it for you, and the boys
    Because love should teach you joy
    And not the imitation
    That your momma and daddy tried to show you
    I did it for you, and for me
    And because I still believe
    There's only one thing
    You can never give up
    Never compromise on
    And that's the real thing you need in love

    Sometimes you have to leave to be who you are supposed to be instead of what someone else wants you to be. Powerful song. Powerful lesson.

    If this song doesn't touch your heart strings, check yourself, you're in more trouble
    than you realize. This entire c.d. "Leap of Faith" is one of the most Fantastic musical
    collection of tunes. Kenny, you out did yourself with this one. I Luv ya man, from L&M
    to now, you wrote the soundtrack to my life. Thank-You, Luv ya Brother 💖

    My parents never got divorced, but I remember listening to this in January 1994 as my father was dying of cancer in the hospital and when he sang the line "but your daddy doesn't live here anymore", I just lost it. To this day, I tear up whenever he gets to that line.

    My dad played this song for me when he and my mom separated. Every time I hear it, it brings me back to that day but with bittersweet memories since I haven't seen my dad in 21 years. He was an alcoholic who disappeared a few years after their divorce. This concert was one of our favorites to watch together. When I need a dose of my dad, I watch this video and Return to Pooh Corner. I miss my dad.

      I’m sorry that your dad was gone. My mom took her four kids & moved to Washington state. Away from my dad in California. Ever since then, there was an empty spot. My dad would never be there again. I was very glad to visit him though. Both my mom and dad passed on. Mom in 2005 & my dad later. I was always sad they divorced. I was 10 years old when they divorced.
      Blessings to you. You mentioned Pooh Corner. I love that song. 🙏❤️

    Did you know that research shows that your marriage will become happy again if you stay with your marriage for five years without doing therapy or any other intervention. Just hanging in with your spouse when its tough and maybe, even, too tough, for five years, your marriage will most times turn itself around!!! Crazy, right??? Its brutal to attempt this without a good sound spiritual life or really true friends who call the suffering couple out with killer wisdom!!! I'm no saint.. I'm one who didn't have children to assist me in my commitment but I think the research is true!!! My life may have been happier if I had just remained in the muck and prayed a lot!!! Still I love the song and I definitely love Kenny's good intentions here!!!

      We were well beyond 5 years before having therapy, but my ex husband made other choices above our marriage, so, as hard as I tried for over 30 years, I couldn't save it alone. I didn't realize I couldn't love him out of his addiction.

    Is that was divorcing my wife. I never meant to divorce my children. The divorce was between me and my wife and how it affected their lives. I had no idea years went by. It took 24 years for me to renew my relationship with my son and then another 6 years after that with my other son. I hadn't seen my daughter since she was 4 years old. That was some 38 years ago. I don't want to live in the past. I look forward to there building the relationship with my two boys and that's about all I can ask of God.
