Baby from the moment you were born
Your life was already rough
Then when he left
It became so tough
How could things go
from bad to worse?

Please don't blame yourself
You can blame me if that's
what will ease the pain
I'll just stand there
and take it like when
I was with him

I won't say a word
but I will look away
Did everything for you
So at least it's not in vain

But they say I'm very strong
But all I feel is weak
They say I'm very brave
But I swear to God I'm meek
So frightened of my shadow
So insecure of me
I'm looking after you
But who's looking after me?

Somedays are just so hard
Find my blessings in your smile
The laughter in your eyes
Makes everything seem worthwhile

And even though I know
that you're too young to understand
I prmise you a future,and
I'll tell you all the plans

We won't need anyones
sympathy to feel better
I'll find a way for us to make it
We'll be happier then before

Even though it seems
like I'm fighting in this
neverending battle,and
feel like I'm losing
at times, just knowing
that it's for you is
all the encouragement I need

But they say I'm very strong
But all I feel is weak
They say I'm very brave
But I swear to God I'm meek
So frightened of my shadow
So insecure of me
I'm looking after you
But who's looking after me?
Oh please tell me baby
Who's looking after me?
