歌詞

A friend shared her story, so sad, so true

I listened closely, my heart breaking too

I felt her sorrow, I couldn’t understand

My dear, let me hold you, take your hand

She thought her marriage was full of bliss

But her husband lived two lives, hiding this

Half a lifetime spent in secret lies

My friend, how did you survive? Tell me why

What a woman!

What strength in her heart!

Forgiving his betrayal

For the children’s part

They loved their father

And he loved them too

My dear friend

Where did you find the courage to do?

She let go of herself, put her dreams aside

Thinking of the children, and the home they supplied

Hoping one day he’d choose the life that’s true

She prayed he’d remember, and settle with you

Yet she knew there was another life somewhere

Children waiting, love to share

Such a tangled web, so hard to face…

My friend, I truly admire your grace

What a woman!

What strength in her heart!

Forgiving his betrayal

For the children’s part

They loved their father

And he loved them too

My dear friend

Where did you find the courage to do?

My friend, I thank you

I feel your pain in my soul

Your story is etched

And in my prayers, you are whole

(Two granddaughters grown now

The family at peace

A loving husband cares for home and you

You are happy, your heart at ease

And the past seems far away…)
