Daughter, I know that smile
I've worn it many times
The one that says, "I'm fine
When you've had
A heavy night
You answer every call
You never want to say no
You carry everybody's
Bags, then wonder why you're
Walking slow
I know
I did it, too
Thought being good
Meant giving till you're empty daughter
Save some for yourself
Not every hand needs all
Your help
Give what you can
But keep enough
For mornings
When the road gets rough
Daughter, save and singing] some
For yourself.
You don't have to carry
Everyone else
A loving heart can still say no
And love them just the same
There'll be people who only call when
Something has gone wrong
They'll tell you you're the strongest, so you'll keep holding on
