Mum

Daughter

My dear please stay away
I can handle this on my own
I know it doesn't seem that way
But I don't want you involved

I don't care if you want my help or not
And I may not know what's best for your life
But I do know one thing
With this song I sing
I will never leave your side

I'll carry the weight on my shoulders
Cause as I grow older
I'm going to keep standing tall
I'm gonna fight to be your soldier

You can't make this right

Don't give on me just yet
For I'll never give up on you

I'm giving up tonight

I know you can make it though

I can't face the truth

Please give me the chance to fight
Fight for your life

A drink in hand
Alone at night
No lover beside me
To hold me tight

I miss dad too
But please listen to me
You're not alone
I'm right here, can't you see?

It's a lonely world out there
I'm trapped in isolating sorrow
My daughter please forgive me
If I'm not here alive tomorrow

I'll carry the weight on my shoulders
Cause as I grow older
I'm going to keep standing tall
I'm gonna fight to be your soldier

You can't make this right

Don't give on me just yet
For I'll never give up on you

I'm giving up tonight

I know you can make it though

I can't face the truth

Please give me the chance to fight
Fight for your life

I am begging on my knees
Please take my life from me
I am begging on my knees
Don't go, please stay for me

I love you with my heart
Then why are you trying to leave
But right now mine is ripped apart
There's no excuse for abandoning me

I'll carry the weight on my shoulders
Cause as I grow older
I'm going to keep standing tall
I'm gonna fight to be your soldier

You can't make this right

Don't give on me just yet
For I'll never give up on you

I'm giving up tonight

I know you can make it though

I can't face the truth

Please give me the chance to fight
Fight for your life

*****************
So, a long time ago, a person on Wattpad came to me with this idea for a mother/daughter duet. I never got the chance to finish it and actually, I hardly had the chance to work on it with them at all. 90% of lyrics were created by me, Mygardenofthorns. However, I give all credit to the mystery person who gave me the idea so long ago. I hope you get the chance to read it and I also hope that we're able to write another song together based off of your inspiration.
