A Hard Day's Work

Slaving for a master that shouldn't be yours Doing your best for your family I see your struggles I see you pain Don't think I don't We look fo different futures You look to be the best husband I look to be the best wife These involve giving our all for each other As the story goes You come home and I have food waiting Yet I can offer you much more I offer you a smile as you walk in the door I offer you a hello kiss I offer you a warm embrace to break the tension of the day And I long for the same Able to break the fears and tears I can offer so much more I know the days are hard It's my job to make them easier I send you a picture to make you smile I send an "I love you" to warm your heart To remind you what you're doing is not in vain I appreciate what you do I try my hardest Please don't forget and allow me to be there
