Lyrics:
I'm supposed to hate you, but I don't
You want me to beg you, but I won't
I'm at a loss. I'm at a loss too
Something we agree on.
Is that it? Are we through?
(spoken) Looks like it, doesn't it?
I'm still here, I ain't given up
I'm still mother and a wife
But all this happened suddenly
It just dropped into our life
I can't let anyone down
So what am I supposed to do?
Don't turn your back on me,
Cause now's the time I need you.
I thought I had the future in the palm of my hand
I thought you were beside me and our dreams were all planned
Thought we would stay together; Now the world’s cold and small
Thought that we'd grow old and gray together
Oh babe we nearly had it all.
And what about our daughter,
I want to look at her and see
That her future's full of hope
So she don't end up like me
I'm finding a voice for the first time
I never knew I had before
Well it started as a whisper
But now it’s got to be a roar
We thought we had the future in the palm of our hands
We thought you were beside us and we had it all planned
We know life isn't easy but we could have stood tall.
Instead we see the moments when we almost had it all.
It don't mean I don't love you
It don't mean I don't care
But I'll see this through
