A young woman
with dreams so big
Wanted to fill her house with children
Her first child came,
a little sun
But one year was all she got to keep
The earth took back that small life And with it,
it took everything
The husband grieved, then walked away Found someone else,
built a new family
Now she only has a grave to visit Just the stone that
bears his name
She's lost her faith in love But not her faith in being
a mother For she carries so much love to give A kind
of love that needs a place to land
If she has to walk this road alone Then she'll walk it,
she'll do it for him (for him)
She watches families
on the street
Small feet running, laughing Every time she feels the ache
But also the hope that never quits For a bloodline has to
carry on
A third generation bearing his name
If no man stands beside her She'll still become a mother again
Being alone can be enough When your heart is as big as
yours
One small family, one small hope Is all she needs to feel
whole again
She dreams of having
a little family
Even if she carries it alone
It's alright, she knows that now
Her love will find a way
