Lord what have I done 
in this life of mine
I feel as though I'm standing 
at the end of the line



One hope, one love, 
I'd be complete
I feel like I'm in, 
the mists of defeat



Be patient, 
your time soon will come
Are not the words 
I'd like to be sung



I'd love a child 
right from the start
Loving him or her 
with all of my heart



The more I think, 
the more I pray
A baby, 
would be born to me one day



Lord how can I show you, 
make you see
What a loving and supportive 
mother I could be



I never once thought 
this would be so hard
I selfishly thought, 
I'd be dealt the baby card



I often sit alone 
and cry at night
It takes a lot out of me, 
this ongoing fight



I try and try 
to show I am strong
While still thinking, 
"what have I done wrong?"



I am truly happy 
for all of you
Who have, of your own; 
a child or two.
