In My Shoes

Day by day
Night by night
More pain I feel
The longer we are apart

They say hang in there
I'm trying to
But put yourself in my shoes

Raise your son
By yourself for six years
Have his father then take him
From you all of a sudden

Go without seeing
Your pride and joy
For months
And every time you called
Your son tells you
He hates you

How would you feel?
Dark, cold, lifeless????
Could you still say
It will work out?
It's hard to deal with
When your world comes
Crashing down on you

But I'm trying to deal with
Day by day
Night by night
'Cause who knows what the future
holds
