I see your smile in a different light
You put on a smile to fight through the fight
I know it's not you deep inside
It's not like you to run and hide
You have a crushing heartache that seeps through your smile
Day by day is all you can do for a while
You try to be strong for your child at home
When you just want to run and be all alone
You think to yourself, can I crawl out of this dark hole?
Or will I be here until I grow old
But you have to carry-on
And let your life unfold
Trusting God has your heart in a deep hold
It seems like it will never end
This heartache that has become your friend
You Put your trust in God who calls on you
Another day you've made it through
As time passes by your heart gets lighter
The crushing world seems a little brighter
Your smile comes back with a radiant glow
Hope in the future starts to show!
You now realize you don't have to carry this heavy load
You and your child will head down a different road
The future is bright and love is ahead
Don't worry, my dear friend you will always have led
Opening the doors and looking over you in care
Angels will always be near
So go on with your life and bring back that big beautiful smile
Let the world see you've made it through those hard miles!
