Building Bridges
You phoned me up tonight
you held out an olive branch and I grabbed it tight
A suggestion to go to the park tomorrow
You said you missed her, I felt your sorrow
"let's take the little one to the park"
What a shock, what a remark
As I've sat and wished for so very long
To feel like a family, together we're strong
I heard the hopefullness in your voice
I felt as though I had no choice
But to say yes and agree to plan a day,
Where all the sorrow would go away
For I can tell that you truly fear, What I'll think of you when you're no longer here
To be honest I don't care about myself
I will place my anger at the back of the shelf,
Just to see my daughter's smile shine bright
As you push her on the swing with all your might
For one day only let's just pretend
That maybe, perhaps our family can mend
