Every Time

Every time I look into that 
mirror and every time I see my 
father and family spirit within 
me wish they were still here 
with me this mirror that haunts 
me everyday sometimes I have 
to make believe there still here 
with me.Every time I often 
think of when I was truly happy 
and every time my eyes shut 
all I can do is dream and hope 
for a better day to come 
ahead.Every time I smile it's to 
make another happier and 
cheerful if they seem gloomy 
and upset 
Everytime I walk that dirty 
rocky road I ask myself things I 
could do to forget about the 
bad and the wrong in a hectic 
world we live today.Everytime I 
see that old Tv box playing that 
same old news wish for 
something better on that old TV 
set.Everytime I see my family 
photo up on that wall when I 
was happier wish god had not 
took them so soon and left 
them all here with me today 
scared to fight this alone I ask 
god above to guide me give me 
the strength I need to go on 
Everytime I look into my 
partners eyes I know ill never 
be alone Everytime we cry we 
see a brighter day that comes 
full of faith and love Everytime 
I know I'm loved and Everytime 
ill never give up
