Cheryl

[Verse 1]
Some mornings feel a little heavy,
Giving all my heart away.
I've bent so far to hold the ones I love,
And wondered if they'd stay.
But there's a fire underneath these tears,
A voice that won't lie down.
No matter what this world takes from me,
I still put on my crown.

[Chorus]
Still I rise, still I shine,
Fabulous, beautiful, one of a kind.
Loving and generous, gifted and true,
There's nobody, nobody quite like you.
Still I rise.

[Verse 2]
The pages that I write with these two hands,
The years I've stood so strong,
Sixty-three of faithful mornings,
Sometimes I feel alone!
But Cheryl, when the doubt comes knocking,
Remember who you are:
A giver with a golden spirit,
A steady, guiding star.

[Chorus]
Still I rise, still I shine,
Fabulous, beautiful, one of a kind.
Loving and generous, gifted and true,
There's nobody, nobody quite like you.
Still I rise.

[Bridge]
And even the voice they say's too loud
Is love that runs too deep.
The flaws are just the fingerprints
Of a woman built to keep.

[Verse 3]
I need caring arms and a tender loving hand,
The friends who hold me near.
I am so loved, though I forget it,
When my own doubts appear.
Cheryl Spikes, they'll remember gladly
The warmth you left behind,
A fabulous and caring woman,
Forever, in their minds.

[Chorus]
Still I rise, still I shine,
Fabulous, beautiful, one of a kind.
Loving and generous, gifted and true,
There's nobody, nobody quite like you.
Still I rise.

[Outro]
So rise, sweet Cheryl, rise and glow,
Loved beyond what you may know.
Still I rise.
