I see her when she’s working
What an awesome sight
I can’t wait for the time
When I’ll get to hold her tight
I see her with her visor
To protect her eyes from the sun
She wears it all day long
Until her work day is done
Sometimes her visor can hide
The sadness in her eyes
For the unexplained times
When she feels the need to cry
I know that she’s been through a lot
Through it all she has survived
I know the day that I met her
That’s the day my life came alive
I only live life with just one wish
That’s to always be with her
All my dreams would come true
If that were to occur
