WHERE WERE THEY

Nine months of labor
Waiting for my baby girl
Nineteen years of loving you
Through the trials of this world

When wasn't I there for you
To hold you when you cried
Even if I caused the pain
Trying to raise you right

You know what we've been through
You know that it’s been hard
How can the bond between us
Be so easy to discard

~~~*Chorus*~~~
Where were they
When I did everything for you
Where were they 
When life, sometimes was cruel
Where were they 
When the blue skies turned gray
I was there
Where were they
~~*~~


I’m not saying I am perfect
But you know that I have tried
Worked hard to give my children
The best I could in life

Everyone is proud of you
But no one more than me
It’s why I find, The way you left
So damned hard to believe…. 

I won’t make you choose girl
But I've always been here
And I will always love you
I just want to make that clear
 

~~~*Chorus*~~~
Where were they
When I did everything for you
Where were they 
When life, sometimes was cruel
Where were they 
When the blue skies turned gray
I was there
Where were they
~~*~~
Think about it…

~~~*Chorus*~~~
Where were they
When I did everything for you
Where were they 
When life, sometimes was cruel
Where were they 
When the blue skies turned gray
I was there
Where were they
~~*~~
