| Brady & Me I sit alone and think Of how it used to be Going through my days Just Brady and me He would get into everything From the moment he opened his eyes Sometimes I'd get so angry Sometimes I even cried No matter what he did Even when it seemed so bad He'd make a funny face at me And I knew that I'd been had He had me wrapped around his finger Oh this he knew was true He knew how to get away with things That most wouldn't let him do There is a very special bond Between a mother and her son There's nothing she won't give him Her work is never done Now I sit alone and think Of how I miss him so My pain is all too real I didn't want him to go I want my baby boy again Back in my arms to hold The pain I feel is killing me My heart is getting cold |
| Brady's Mom The intense pain she feels Is more than she will show She will put a smile on So no one else will know She always covers her emotions Puts on a face for others to see Her heart inside is breaking She's crying to be set free This pain is too much for her To handle day by day She cries inside every minute She pushes everyone away She can't let anyone close For no one can understand Her heart is dying slowly Her life is in God's hands She cries out to God She feels so alone each day Why God did you do this? Why did you take my baby away? She fights to know what lessons God has for her in store There is a hole in her heart now She can bare the hurt no more She wants her pain to end Living life she now fears She doesn't want to go on She can't stop all the tears |
| I Know You Have A Plan I've read about Your Kingdom And what You have in store For each of us on this earth You love us ever more This world seems so cruel I know You have a plan God will my pain and suffereing Ever come to an end? I miss my only son You took him way too soon I wasn't ready God To face this sort of doom I want my baby back But I know what's done is done You have a plan for each of us For You too gave Your Son I know You know my pain And You'll help me make it through But God sometimes I'm just not sure Why You do the things You do I guess I'm just mere human And it's not for me to understand I'll just have to keep believing Knowing You have a plan My mind is making me crazy Trying to figure it all out God please give me strength To believe without a doubt You are good and You are fair I've read this again and again I hear the words You tell me I've been washed of all my sin God help me make it through this For I know you have a plan And I know the day will come When I will be with Brady again |
| One More Day One more day is all I need To hold my baby tight One more day is all I need To help me see the light One more day is all I need To kiss my baby again One more day is all I need To tell him how much I love him One more day is all I need To help my heart to heal One more day is all I need To know that God is real One more day is all I need To spend with my baby son One more day is all I need To understand his work was done One more day is all I need To get me through this grief One more day is all I need To know why his life was brief One more day is all I need To make my heart smile One more day is all I need To help me through this trial One more day is all I need To kiss my baby good-bye One more day is all I need To believe we'll meet in the sky One more day is all I need To get me closer to You One more day is all I need To accept the things You do One more day is all I need One more day is all I need |
