Lyrics
Make the Difference Judy Daigle 12/17/12
Dear Kathy, Do you remember me?
We had a class or two together last year.
I wanted you to know that I know what they have done
I saw the way you walked the halls with such fear.
I never tried to help you for fear that I’d be next
Better just to turn and walk away.
I didn’t have the strength to stand up for you
I left you there alone to face the lonely day.
Chorus
If we all tried to help each other instead of tearing down
The world would be a better place for us to be.
Each person is a gift and we must make it known
That we will stand together against the cruelty
And we can make the difference for all to see
Dear Kathy, their words caused so much pain
But our silence hurt you even more
We didn’t feel like they did with their petty evil ways
But how could you have known that out there on your own
If I had the chance to do it all again
I’d come to your defense so you’d stay strong
I’d tell you don’t give up don’t let the demons win
It may seem dark now but it won’t last long
Chorus
Dear Kathy, I know this comes too late
You couldn’t stand the pressure anymore
If you were here to see this I think that you would smile
We’re all here to support you, not like before
We’ve all vowed to make it stop that you will be the last
We won’t let one more angel go away
We’ll stand up for anyone who’s preyed upon like you
We’ll give them the strength to face another day
Chorus 2x then repeat last line
