How Do I Tell You? by Jennifer Chung

Lyrics for How Do I Tell You? by Jennifer Chung

I see it in her eyes,

The watery glows from the tears shes cried.

Yet I know shes strong because she tries to hide them.

I tell her that everything will be okay.

Cause Ive been praying everyday.

All you gotta do is have some faith.

Mama, dont you see,

Its not as bad as it may seem.

Mama, its alright.

Everyday proves,

Yesterday was worth the fight.

We had to go through the dark to see the light.

She sacrificed for family,

Mama, Joe, and me us three.

Her health, well-being was all put on the line.

Other judged, they did not know,

What all went on within our home.

Theyd rather go by rumors and closed eyes.

Mama, dont you see,

Its not as bad as it may seem.

Mama, its gon be just fine.

Its easier to live as one whos happily blind.

But you and I know what lies down deep inside.

How do I tell you,

How do I express,

That all we had to go through is so much more than memorys mess?

How do I tell you,

How much I adore you,

What hasnt killed us yet built up shields to make us this strong.

How do I tell you,

How youve done right this long.

Theres no need to be sorry.

There is nothing youve done wrong.

Your love is evident through scars, through tears, and now this song.

Lyrics for Flowers in a Window by singindork888

Cars flow by, like ocean waves

Sunlight tryin, to fight the haze you find

me here, tryin to make my way home

Catch my eye, lookin the other way

See the signs, through the window pane

Paper planes, line the streets like bones

Search the scene for signs of hope Im drawn

to you, on a second story balcony

from the corner of my eye.

Flowers, in a window

Shining, like a ray of hope

I know, theres a place i can go

Flowers, in a window

Gleaming, like a ray of light

I know, theres a place i can go

Numbers, on the door are made of

Other things, something beautiful just

Stands so strong, in the middle of the night

Break me down, like a child I begin to drown

In this river like a story told, from a bedside

No Words by AJ Rafael

Ltrics for “No Words” by AJ Rafael

no words can express how much you mean to me mom you’ve helped me to see

that theres more to this life than just toys shoes and cars

no song can express all the life and the music that you’ve brought to me

more than any old piano or brand new guitar

through the dark and the light mom you’re fighting the fight and we’re here

mother dearest you’ve made it so clear that its all about love in this short life we had

and i know its been rough but we’ll take the storm together momma no one can do it like you do

its been 10 years you’ve stayed strong but the tears they dont ever go away

he’s still here right beside us he’ll stay like the wind

you did it yourself without anyones help and im blessed by you mom

im always behind you through thick and thru this

we’ve been through so much no one or nothing could touch what we have as a family

holding on i know i’ve been gone for a while but know that im here

so much to say but words get in the way so i’ll just thank you and just love you and mom i’m proud of you
