She hears the bell but doesn't even know what round it is
Or who it is that meets her in the center of the ring.
She leaves the corner, sees his gloves are off,
And knows his fists of steel do more than sting.
Her life is on the line, but that's not her fight alone
And she doesn't fight to wear a victor's crown.
And though she's heard the ref start counting once or twice
She's refused to ever take it lying down.
(Chorus)
And the queen of hearts will fight again today
She'll face whatever fears may come and pray them all away.
The battle may have scarred her but her spirit will not fall,
For when cancer faces perfect love, love will conquer all.
She lies awake and tries to make it all make sense somehow
And hears the darkness whisper, "What does this really mean?"
She finds the answer hidden in her heart
The part of her that's true but seldom seen.
It's not her shapely flesh that makes her beautiful
And the surgeon's knife can't make that truth a lie.
And even if a tear should sometimes fall to earth
Each new day's a chance to let her spirit fly.
