She cries in the night so no one can hear
She wishes she did'nt have this cross to bear
Walking alone till he's out of sight
Doing again till it comes out right
She cries to herself so her daughter won't hear
A lonely girls call to her heaven from here
She uses the ones that she finds in her way
Knowing that someday she'll have her hell to pay
She lies cause she thinks that it makes her fill whole
The truth is a thing thats to boring and slow
Inside is a child, just wanting for love
She wishes some how she could give her a shove
Her life is a mess, and she just wants out
Her childhood is gone, without a doubt
She cries in the night so no one can hear
She wishes she did'nt have this cross to bear
Altough it's not right, what he put her through
Somehow she just can't, start over anew
As time passes by, she's learned a new way
To let the child out, and teach her to play
The pain will subside, the hurting will stop
as she measures up, for a newfound crop
She cries in the night so no one can hear
She wishes she did'nt have this cross to bear
She dreams of a love, that she once did have
She takes two more pills, to help her to bed
As days turn to years, as she loses hope
Her child is the one, helps her lose the rope
And as she is singing, her heart break is close
sometimes we cannot, conquer our ghosts
She cries in the night so no one can hear
She wishes she did'nt have this cross to bear

And as she plays,
her sweet song of laughter
floats through the air
