Was this song written about cancer??
Pray God you can cope.
I stand outside this woman's work,
This woman's world.
Ooh, it's hard on the man,
Now his part is over.
Now starts the craft of the father.
I know you have a little life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of strength left.
I know you have a little life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of strength left.
I should be crying, but I just can't let it show.
I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking
Of all the things I should've said,
That I never said.
All the things we should've done,
That we never did.
All the things I should've given,
But I didn't.
Oh, darling, make it go,
Make it go away.
Give me these moments back.
Give them back to me.
Give me that little kiss.
Give me your hand.
(I know you have a little life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of strength left.
I know you have a little life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of strength left.)
I should be crying, but I just can't let it show.
I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking
Of all the things we should've said,
That were never said.
All the things we should've done,
That we never did.
All the things that you needed from me.
All the things that you wanted for me.
All the things that I should've given,
But I didn't.
Oh, darling, make it go away.
Just make it go away now.

"This Woman's Work has been written for the soundtrack of the movie She's Having A Baby and is written from the viewpoint of a soon-to-be father, worrying about his wife and unborn child."
also, "The haunting and beautiful ballad "This Woman's Work" about a young unexpected mother-to-be who doesn't seem prepared, and is sung from the POV of a worried mother who anguishes over things she should've spoken to/or done with her daughter. Her vocals rise to a crescendo when she sings "Oh darling, make it go away" as in the feelings of angst. "
