I bite my tongue
and say goodbye,
keep the smile in my voice,
try not to cry.
There’s nothing more
I could have done
I bite my tongue
and carry on.
I listened to
your fear and pain,
assured that all
will be well again.
Remembering when it was you and me
your mother’s heart
now can see
we give our love unconditionally.
There’s nothing more
you could have done,
then bite your tongue
and carry on.
