It isn't easy to express What I feel inside But that shouldn't come As a surprise to you Haven't been the perfect mom But please know that I tried I did the best I could and that's the best that I could do Now facing a future that's uncertain I cannot say what lies ahead But I won't give up, I'll face my fears, and fight back year of uncried tears And tell you all the things I never said All of the hours spent at work Consumed with my career I wouldn't blame you if you thought I didn't care Graduations that I missed All the games I didn't cheer I never told you then but how I wanted to be there As thoughts of the past run through my memory The choices I've made, the life I've led An office on the highest floor it meant so much But you mean more That's one of many things... So much in my life I took for granted Life tucking my children into bed My world was always spinning fast And in an instant year have passed And here I sit with so much left unsaid I've always lived a world apart But through it all you were my heart That's one of many things of oh... so many things ... I never said
I really appreciate this. I just got cast in the musical, and I'm using your videos to help me practice!! A little feedback, since it seems like you'd be interested in hearing: the lyrics come up a little late. Once I have my script, it won't matter. Also, it feels like the tempo changes throughout, but maybe that's just because I'm not used to singing it without the broadway person also singing it....
Thanks for the feedback and congratulations on getting into the musical. I would love to see this someday. I think I recorded this while listening to the original broadway cast recording through my headphones so i literally followed the exact tempo of that recording.
