Pardon Me
Don't look for me
I'm not there
Look around....
Am I anywhere?
Not under the bed
Behind the couch
Not in the shed
or behind the door
I'm not anywhere you'll find me anymore.
No more bruises there to hide
No sunglasses to cover my eyes
Without me, where would you be?
So Pardon Me "if you can't sleep".
Yes, you wonder, where I am
You say to yourself
How will I survive
Where's the one I need to get by.
To pay for my gas
Supply all my meals
Take care of my child...
Pardon Me,
What's the deal?
I now smile, cause you are gone
I awake with my children and know I am strong.
I am woman
Like "Joan of Arc"
Fierce and heroic I will be
Now that I know you can't find me.
For the Woman who think they can"t do it, for those that are scared...
Be scared enough to break away.....
