All Those Years
Six years old she watches as her life crumbles
Was it the divorce or the lack of parents? She'll never know.
She holds back the tears
one more day
Fifteen years old she sits and writes
With paper all around this is all she has now.
There's no one to shed a tear to
Her only friend has died, what is she to do?
She holds back the tears
one more day
With a family and life of her own
She has forgiven all she can
She has followed her heart and
accomplished her dreams
She will never forget the tears.
she held back all those years.
