A Brand New Start

[Verse 1]
I'm a poor Filipina, with a heavy heart,
Life’s a struggle, each day’s a brand new start.
Washing clothes, day by day, scraping by,
Trying to pay the bills under this gray sky.
Got kids to feed, and dreams to hold tight,
But the weight of the world keeps me up at night.
Then one day he walked in, stole my weary heart,
Took me from my troubles, played a brand new part.

[Chorus]
Ooh, my life was hard, but here’s a brand new start,
In the midst of sorrow, he’s my missing part.
Caught in a whirlwind, my heart began to dart,
I didn’t even know where to start.

[Verse 2]
He was attracted, I could see it in his eyes,
But I spoke to him softly, said my loving goodbyes.
Sorry, sir, I’m married, kids in my embrace,
This love we can’t discover, I must keep my place.
But he was cunning, with a charm so divine,
Offered me a job, said he’d help me shine.
Luring me away from the struggles I fight,
Didn’t know he’d secretly change my life.

[Chorus]
Ooh, my life was hard, but here’s a brand new start,
In the midst of sorrow, he’s my missing part.
Caught in a whirlwind, my heart began to dart,
I didn’t even know where to start.

[Verse 3]
Days turned to nights, as my fears left their mark,
But the warmth of his smile lit up the dark.
He would help me through, teach me how to cope,
In the chaos of this life, he became my hope.
With every laugh and every tear we shared,
I found myself believing, knowing that he cared.
Dreams we'd chase together, for my kids, for us all,
In the midst of weakness, love was their call.

[Chorus]
Ooh, my life was hard, but here’s a brand new start,
In the midst of sorrow, he’s my missing part.
Caught in a whirlwind, my heart began to dart,
I didn’t even know where to start.

[Bridge]
Life can break you down, but love can make you whole,
A light in the darkness, a whisper to my soul.
With each passing moment, we’re building our way,
From the shadows of doubt, into a brighter day.

[Chorus]
Ooh, my life was hard, but here’s a brand new start,
In the midst of sorrow, he’s my missing part.
Caught in a whirlwind, my heart began to dart,
I didn’t even know where to start.

[Outro]
So here’s to the struggle, and here’s to the fight,
With love as our anchor, we'll weather the night.
From my heavy heart, to a future so bright,
I'm a poor Filipina, but now I feel light.
