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
