LYRIC FOR SALE

By Lisa Leonard

I knew this day would come, come so fast
I knew our exclusive love was never meant to last
Gratefully your pain and joy have also been mine
I always told myself that on this day that I would be sober and refined

Remember when you scraped your knee my boy
Remember when you got stung by a bee my boy
I was there to hold you close and dry your tears
Remember when you hated girls my boy
Remember when you still had curls my boy
I was there throughout all those years

With all my faults I did the best that I could
To make sure you grew up strong, majestic and good.
With all your faults you still made me proud
I guess we learned from each other
how to shine through dark scary clouds
Remember my step back as I let you move on
Please remember my role as your life's natural pawn
I am the other woman now my boy
I am the other woman now
Remember that I love you my boy
As I take my final bow
It's time to let go my boy
It's my time to weep and pray
Remember my boy that every day after tomorrow
is now just another day
