Verse 1 Youngest of four, their world undone Born when hard times had begun She was the baby, soft and small Learning to stand where others fall They walked hard roads side by side Days too heavy for a child A mother loving best she knew With a heart still learning too Pre-Chorus She gave her all she had to give Love was the way she learned to live Chorus She was a baby born in hard days Mum carried her hope in quiet ways Dreamed of blue skies, wide and clear A gentler life than brought her here If love alone could make things right She’d have been held in endless light Verse 2 Life didn’t give her easy ground Some hearts were gone, some turned around A father left, a mother stayed Trying to guard her from the pain She was bright, her mind ran fast Never built to fit the past Rules too small, walls too thin For all that fire burning in Pre-Chorus She’s more than what the past has done More than where she’s coming from Chorus She was a baby born in hard days Mum carried her hope in quiet ways Dreamed of blue skies, wide and clear A gentler life than brought her here If love alone could make things right She’d have been held in endless light Verse 3 She keeps on trying, though no one sees The weight she carries quietly Doors get closed, voices fade She fights her fear every day Her babies gone, her arms still ache She’s doing all it takes To prove she’s more than what they say And she won’t walk away Bridge Years rolled on, the losses came Love and grief spoke the same name Empty arms, a missing sound She looks up now, not only down One day at a time she tries and tries Small wins under heavy skies Final Chorus She is more than the hurt she’s known More than seeds in broken stone Even when the world comes undone She’s still someone’s precious one Outro The world might miss her tears and scars But her mother knows how brave they are She sees the fight, she knows the truth And she still believes in her girl’s way through mmm mmm mmmm
