World Without Strangers

(Verse 1)
You chased your dreams, I chased mine too
Little did we know, yours would shine right through
A full ride scholarship, my heart swelled with pride
But little did I know, you were hiding inside

(Chorus)
The weight of the world, on your shoulders alone
Mom's secrets kept, my heart turned to stone
But still you rose, through the dark of the night
And shined so bright, my guiding light

(Verse 2)
Depression crept in, like a thief in the night
Stealing your joy, my world wasn't right
Bronchitis took hold, my heart almost broke
But I came back to you, my love unspoke

(Chorus)
The weight of the world, on your shoulders alone
Mom's secrets kept, my heart turned to stone
But still you rose, through the dark of the night
And shined so bright, my guiding light

(Bridge)
Now we're moving on, from that darkest night
You're married with a child, my heart's alight
A beautiful granddaughter, my love for you grew
Through every up and down, my love for you shines true.
