hold me close
hold me near
protect me from the coming fear
kiss me gently
say those words I hear
even though the end is near
I saw the soldiers trudging in
taking him away, trusted I thought they'd been
I hear their voices cold and mean
as a million men taken I had seen
the only one I had was gone
the one that I depended on
the love of my life
my heart
my soul
my soul now broken, my heart cold
they left me slowly
left me behind
crazy to think these people were kind
I fell to the floor
shaking in fear
as the final train leaving, I did hear
tears falling from my eyes
all the truth
all the lies
the woman I was supposed to be
was broken now, I could see
the screams coming from my mouth
made them want to run about my heart was dead
my soul was gone
and that was when my baby was born
blonde hair
blue eyes
she looked at me in suprise
the dirty streets, in the morn
my beautiful baby, Olivia, was born
my treasure
my life
the only thing that kept me alive
Oliva grew up to be strong and wise
forgetting all her mother's lies
because one day walking on the street
she found something quite very sweet
she ran to her father
old but strong
and she forgot all her father's wrongs
they all live together
happy and free
beautiful and precious they all will be
