Now I lay me down to sleep I close my eyes and still I weep I pray the Lord my soul to take I pray my life I don't forsake I need someone to understand I never had the gentle hand Of a father to guide and show Examples of life I needed to know And now I'm grown, but not inside From the world my soul I hide I have two children of my own And still I feel so all alone I love them both - more every day For them I live; for them I pray And yet there's more I want from life I yearn to be a loving wife I have this need to find a man Who wants me in his life-long plan I have a need to feel secure I want a man to make me sure Am I so wrong for wanting this? Is that a life I have to miss? Is Mother all I'll ever be? Is Wife something I'll never be? Don't get me wrong - I've been blessed I love my children and this is stressed And yet I long for something more I just haven't found what I'm looking for
