I Wish You Would Tell Me
I remember when you would hold me close
And whisper how much you love me
I remember when he gave you a rose
And it filled you with such glee
For years, you brought me so much joy
I’d never leave you like a broken toy
Five expressed their love for you
A husband, daughters, and a son
I knew that to be true
But why is it that now only one loves you?
I wish you would tell me
Of what it is you are hiding
Is there something that I don’t see?
Why, Mami, are you crying?
Why do you make such a face?
I know the past can never be erased
But why are you suffering alone?
It wounds me deeply to see you so
You can’t do this on your own
Only one can help you, we’ve known
You brought me here to this world
You gave me a home and your love
Then three came by and you loved us so
With all your heart and soul
The Lord had blessed you with four
Beautiful children to love and care
For years I’ve ask for nothing
Except your love for me
But I know there’s something
That you don’t want me to see
We had bad times in life
And still I choose you
I wish you would tell me
So that I may understand
No matter how much it hurts,
I still want to know
I will always love you
