There you are  On the other side of the window  You look sad and scared  Wondering where your son is about to go  You tell me you miss me  And that you want me home  Then you smile  And tell me how much my little brother has grown  We catch up on lost times  As fast as we can  Because we both know  We'll probably never see each other again  You start crying  And I can see  That deep inside you're dying  You're blaming yourself  For not being the best mom  And I tell you  It was my choice to do wrong  It hurts me to see you blaming yourself  Because I know that deep inside  You wish you could help  Because you already have one son gone  And you're about to loose another one  The only thing you want right now  Are your two oldest children  Back with their little brother  And home with their loving mother  It's about time for you to go  We sit in silence  Wishing that we were on the same side of the window  That we could hug for one last time  Before I get sent away f

While You were Not HEre

While you weren't here  I cried every night  A million tears fell  Still my heart wasn't right  While you weren't here  I did what I could  Hoping against hope  My decisions were good  While you weren't here  I gained some in age  Things just went on  And life turned a page  While you weren't here  I just tried to go on  Knowing what didn't kill me  Would only make me strong  While you weren't here  A whole lot got changed  My life became different  My world rearranged  While you weren't here  I had to learn to be alone  To stand on my two feet  To make my own home  So that's where I am now  At this stage of  my life  Still scared and alone  Still coping with strife  And oh how I wish that  Things could be different  That I could go back  To a time in the past
