I See Your Face

I know that all the work I do may never make things right The hours spent in darkness, working long into the night But when I think about your smile, the faith you have in me I want to be the hero, the man I know you see I flew across the ocean, and it's like a different world You say I should be brave, but I'm just a little girl I wish that you could hug me tight, I miss you every day But I think of you and I know I'll be okay I see your face In the sunrise every morning I see your face When I close my eyes at night I know you're far away from me But even though you are You're always right here in my heart I'm learning to be brave and strong, just like you said to be I know that if I'm kind and good that you'll be proud of me It's hard to be without you, but I know every night Your voice will keep me safe until the morning light I did my best to teach you all the things you need to know I wish that I could be right there to watch you as you grow But now I have to do my part to build a better world To make a better future for my little girl I see your face In the sunrise every morning I see your face When I close my eyes at night I know you're far away from me But even far apart You're always right here in my heart You're always right here in my heart
