The Good Times

Sometimes I close my eyes and remember Remember all the good and bad All the happy and the sad All the things that made me That sculpted my heart That dreamt up my mind My mother tells me stories from my past How I was her one true wish That god just wouldn’t give her And when she finally got her gift She was terrified to lose it But she got it She got me Then that day when I came to be Mommy and Daddy so filled with joy But short lived 16 days after Daddy went away Daddy just wouldn’t stay But for a year it was just us two Then a gift from above A knock on the door woke us up 1 day after I turned one Another part of our family begun A sick little baby so little and small A sister, my sister she became to be And now it became us three We were such happy kids Not one worry in our life 5 years past of our joy Then back came daddy With much joy A family we truly were We were spoiled Oh yes indeed We were the queens Much has happen since those days Daddy once again went away But I was always happy as a kid My childhood was my amazing gift Yes Sometimes I close my eyes and remember Remember all the good and bad All the happy and the sad All the things that made me That sculpted my heart That dreamt up my mind I love to close my eyes And remember the good times
