Tribulations of a single mom.

Lyrics

ALL BY HERSELF


With breakfast all done and the kids off to school she sits by the window alone
Hoping the sunlight and coffee might warm up her weary soul
Raising two kids single-handedly gets pretty old
But shes doin it all by herself

All by herself, this wasnt supposed to happen
All by herself, she cant believe hes gone
Day after day shes just carryin on all by herself

She thinks back to the day when she said I do - they were both so much in love
He worked straight nights at the factory - hed lay down beside her at dawn
But one day someone ran a light and just like that he was gone
Leavin her all by herself


Bridge: Now theres a guy down at work whos askin her out
And she promised that shed let him know
Its been a year and she just cant let those memories go
No, it aint easy all by herself

All by herself, but shes gotta face the future
All by herself, its time shes movin on
Its her the kids are depending upon

So shes got to be strong by herself
And shell get along by herself
Shell make it all by herself
