when it's quiet and there's nobody there
she finds herself saying a prayer
that God will make her strong
and the nights won't be so long
because she deserves that happy ending
sometimes it's so hard just pretending
that she's not a little hurt inside
and the things she has to hide
she knows she's always tried her best
and she realizes that she is blessed
with wonderful kids that love her so
and it makes her smile to watch them grow
and i want to tell her, it won't always be this way
that time will heal all and there will come a day
when she finds that place that she wants to be
and these hard times will be a distant memory
because she is so much stronger than she thinks
