Michael

START Michael © Sophie Boswell/BuntyBisharah A new star now shines for us; the brightest in the sky Since Michael, you had to leave us and bade this world goodbye You were a great entertainer, on this planet Earth Who shared a wonderful gift, given to you at birth Michael, your song and dance, live on eternally This world was way too cruel for you, but now you’re free ‘Light of foot’, you skimmed across the floor As your audience clapped and cheered and cried for more And when you sang, so beautifully You bared your soul for all to see Michael, your song and dance, live on eternally This world was way too cruel for you, but now you’re free Your light and energy touched everyone Each time you stood on the stage and sang You made this world, a much better place You were an inspiration to the human race Michael, your song and dance, live on eternally This world was way too cruel for you, but now you’re free Just before you left us, you sang a song called “Smile” And you sang it like an angel; you had such style It was like a lovely dream about a perfect day You left the world something that will never go away.
