Taking stalk, in some grace
That every thing has a place
A space for this and a space for that
So where's my place in my flat
2 beautiful sons, do they see me here
I hear them, sometimes a tear
For she feels left out as they get a life
But never a lonely little wife
Just a lonely mum who sees
The joy, the happiness and the glee's
that her sons have found their path in life
But never a lonely little wife
They love me strong, that I know
As I hug them hello and cheerio
Some days we don't see each other
But always they think of their mother
I get a glimpse of their eyes
Remember the days that have gone by
When they were never from my side
As we walked the streets, holding hands, with pride
I knew these days would come soon
so i sit alone in my room
I am happy and yes happy not to be
A lonely wife, oh that is not me
A single mum for many years
Shared the joys and wiped the tears
Loved my kids that is true
But singletons feel loneliness too
