Lyrics

SHE REFUSED TO GIVE UP
SHE HAD TOO MUCH TO LIVE FOR
SHE HAD THREE YOUNG CHILDREN
THAT NEEDED HER MORE
SHE STILL HAD ALOT TO TEACH THEM
THEY HAD A LOT OF GROWING UP TO DO
BEFORE SHE COULD LEAVE THEM
BEHIND
IN THIS BIG WORLD TO GO THRU
CHOURUS
SHE WAS A FIGHTER A TRUE SURVIVOR
A WOMAN A MOTHER AND A WIFE
SHE WAS A FIGHTER A TRUE SURVIVOR

SHE REFUSED TO GIVE UP
ON LIFE
VERSE 2
SHE WENT FOR HER TREATMENTS
THOUGH THEY SAID THERE WAS NO CHANCE
SHE KNEW HER FATE WAS HANDED OVER
IT WAS NOW PUT IN GODS HANDS
SHE HAD FOUGHT A LONG HARD BATTLE
ENOUGH TO EASE HER MIND
SHE HAD TOO MUCH LEFT TO GIVE
SHE COULDN'T LEAVE THIS LIFE BEHIND
CHOURUS
SHE WAS A FIGHTER A TRUE SURVIVOR
A WOMAN A MOTHER AND A WIFE
SHE WAS A FIGHTER A TRUE SURVIVOR

SHE REFUSED TO GIVE UP
FIFTEEN YEARS LATER IT CAME BACK AGAIN
THEY SAID IT MIGHT HAPPEN BUT SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHEN
SHE SPENT EACH DAY LIKE IT WAS HER LAST
GOD GAVE HER ALL SHE NEEDED TILLHER LIFE CAME TO PASS


I believe this song will touch many hearts, provide encouragement to a family, loved ones and the person who is suffering illness. I enjoyed the instrumentation as well as the vocal. I am not a musician so can not really judge the various instruments, however, I am an artist and a listener so feel it is a song I would be happy to record with the instrumentation that has been used.

Great vocal and harmony,, nice peaceful song ,, nice storytelling

I love the lyrics. Such an inspirational song.

Good story with plenty of visual imagery and a positive spin to keep it optimistic. Nice tone on the slide

This poignant ballad tells the story of a young woman's fight against cancer. We all know women who have fought this battle, and this song describes the emotions so beautifully...it put a lump in my throat and reminded me of my friend Christina, who left 3 kids behind. The vocal is gentle and sweet; the instrumentation understated, which is perfect because it doesn't detract from the storytelling. Love the harmonies. Beautiful job all around. Thank you for writing, recording and sharing this important song.
