Secretly keeping my heartache inside, a smile is a mask that I wear
|
The world’s unforgiving, the story’s been told
|
Waiting seems so unfair
|
Hiding my own dreams, I try to fit in
|
To the swaying, the beat of their dance
|
Softly I whisper alone in my prayers
|
For courage to be who I am
|
Someday your heart will understand
|
Someday your beauty made new again
|
While you lie sleeping alone in the night beneath the wind-driven snow
|
Hope springs eternal, the birth of new life, the bloom, a wild rose
|
Seasons bring changes, the day loses light, and darkness it comes and it goes
|
Splendid and perfect, eternally bright, God planted each wild rose
|
The flower may fade but the seed still remains, still lingers the sweetest perfume
|
Wilted and tired, time wears you down
|
But heaven’s breath inspires the bloom
|
Remember your heart will understand
|
Remember your beauty will never end
|
