It isn't easy to express
What I feel inside
But that shouldn't come
As a surprise to you
Haven't been the perfect mom
But please know that I tried
I did the best I could
and that's the best that I could do
Now facing a future that's uncertain
I cannot say what lies ahead
But I won't give up,
I'll face my fears, and fight back
year of uncried tears
And tell you all the things
I never said
All of the hours spent at work
Consumed with my career
I wouldn't blame you if you
thought I didn't care
Graduations that I missed
All the games I didn't cheer
I never told you then but how I
wanted to be there
As thoughts of the past run through my memory
The choices I've made, the life I've led
An office on the highest floor it meant so much
But you mean more
That's one of many things...
So much in my life I took for granted
Life tucking my children into bed
My world was always spinning fast
And in an instant year have passed
And here I sit with so much left unsaid
I've always lived a world apart
But through it all you were my heart
That's one of many things of oh... so many things
... I never said
