Where Did the Time Go

"Where did the time go"

"Where did the time go
when my girl was so small,
"Now as I glance at her and see
that she has grown so tall."

"As I remember her sitting
on my lap,
"And watching T.V with her
as we both fall to a nap."

"With the bows in 
her hair,
"At that age with no worry
or care."

"Now as she grows older
and I worry once more,
"Boys calling her
and knocking on the door."

"I just need to let go,
and let life show the way,
"Because I know I have taught
her well, and she will turn out okay."

AND TO GIVE IT OUR ALL,

THE ENTIRE GANG LEADING THE

Hope In a Mirror

"HOPE IN A MIRROR"

"THERE IS HOPE FACING ME
RIGHT THROUGH A MIRROR,
THROUGH ITS BLINDING EYE
AND ITS STARE."

"LOOKING RIGHT BACK AT ME
WITH JUST A MYSTIC LOOK,
AS INTENSE AS 
THE OUTCOME OF A MYSTERY IN
A BOOK."

"GIVING WAY TO A SMILE
OF ITS OWN,
COMING TO ME
IN A PLACE WHERE I
CALL HOME."

"SO PERFECT IN ITS
TOUCH,
AND GENTLE AS 
SUCH."

"NOT SHOWING ANYTHING
NEW,
ONLY FULL OF SMILES
AND NOT SO
BLUE."

"UNTIL NEXT TIME
WHEN I STARE IN THE
MIRROR,

"TO ONLY SEE HOPE
FACING RIGHT BACK AT ME
WITH A SMILE
AND NEVER ANY FEAR."

The Sky Is Falling

"The Sky Is Falling"

"The Sky is Falling
and I am down on the ground,
"With all the noise
coming from all around."

"Why is this happening
with all the smoke
in the air,
"Causing a lot of
frighten people and
with alot of scare."

"Is this the end
or is it near,
"For me to cry is not right
but here go's a tear."

"If the sky is falling
I have so much to do,
"A lot of worry for
others to help get them
through."

"No preparation
for this very day,
"Only to know that
everything will turn out okay."

"If this was the end
there would be no more
birds in the sky,
"Everything will seem
to end, and the grounds
and the air would become
dry."

"No life
would be making any more
sound,
"Only the trees will remain
and everything else will
wither to the ground."

"A new day will rise
up from the ruins
of the past,
"For to one day
a new life will 
only last."

"Like the dinasaurs from
many years ago,
"The era and age
went away to a new day
and will begin to
show."

Shivers

"SHIVERS"

"I GOT THE SHIVERS
WHEN I LOOK OUTSIDE,
"THE WHITENESS OF
THE SNOW ONLY
WANT TO HIDE."

"BLINDING OF THE
LIGHT JUST SHINING
RIGHT THROUGH,
"TRENCHING IN THE SNOW
AS I AM OFF TO SCHOOL."

"WITH THE WIND HOWLING
AND MY JACKET WRAPPED
EVER SO TIGHT,
"AS THE SNOW CONTINUES
TO MOUNT RIGHT
THROUGH THE NIGHT."

"THE DAY BEGINS TO BE NEW
AS MY EYES OPEN AS THE LIGHT
STARTS TO COME THROUGH THE
BLIND BY THE DOOR,
"WITH THE COLDEST OF THE
AIR, MY BODY CONTINUES TO
SHIVER, AND MY HEART BEGINS
TO SOAR."

"THE LAUGHTER OF THE KIDS
PLAYING CAN BE HEARD
FOR MILES AROUND,
"STILL THE SNOW CONTINUING
TO MOUNT ON THE GROUND."

"WHAT I WOULD GIVE
TO BE A KID ONCE MORE,
"WISHING THAT I CAN
GO BACK IN TIME, JUST BY
WALKING THROUGH A DOOR."

"ONLY TO KNOW THAT A WISH
IS ONLY A WISH,
"TO ONLY LIVE WITH ALL
THE INGREDIENCE OF LIFE LIKE 
YOUR FAVORITE MEAL TO A DISH."

"A SPICE OF LIFE
FROM THE PRESENT TO
THE PAST,
"MAKES ALL THE MEMORIES STAY
EMBEDDED IN ME, AND TO
ALWAYS KEEP AND LAST."

The Clover

"The Clover"

"I picked a clover
to hand to the one that
I adore,
"With love I
give to you
with my heart to soar."

"With a four leaf clover
I add luck to
your day,
"I want to touch
your voice with emotion
to the words that you are about to 
say."

"Nothing comes close
to the feelings that I have
deep down inside,
"To show the love I
have for you and
that it is real
and to never hide."

"The look that comes
to you from this clover
of light,
"Gives you the hope
and dream from this day
forward through the 
night."

The Heart

"THE HEART OF MY
FEELING IS BURSTING
WITH NO WHERE TO
TURN,

"A FEELING THAT
IS DEEP INSIDE
AND IS FILLED WITH
FIRE TO BURN."

"WHAT CAN CAUSE
THIS, IS IT LOVE
THAT IS TRUE,

"AT TIMES TO PICK
UP THE PIECES AND
TO TURN THE LAUGHTER
FROM A FROWN OF
BLUE."

"MY HEART HAS BEEN
TOUCHED OF A ENVY
OF JOY,

"A FEELING FROM A FIRST 
CRUSH OF GIRL WHEN
I WAS JUST A YOUNG BOY."

"NOT TO TURN AWAY
BUT TO WALK RIGHT AHEAD
WITH A FLOWER IN
MY HAND,

"TO WALK THROUGH ANY
OBSTACLES THAT MAY COME
THROUGH THE WINDING
ROADS, AND TO TRACE
OTHER FOOTSTEPS BEFORE
ME IN THE SAND."

"TO PRESENT THIS FLOWER
TO MY TRUE VALENTINE,

"WITH THE FEELING THAT
IS REAL, AND TO NEVER
RUN AWAY FROM, BUT TO ONLY
BELIEVE THAT IT IS A SIGN."

"THE HEART OF MY
FEELING IS BURSTING
WITH NO WHERE TO TURN,

"A FEELING THAT
IS DEEP INSIDE AND IS
FILLED WITH FIRE TO BURN."

A Smile of Wishes

"A SMILE OF WISHES"

"I SEE A SMILE OF WISHES
IN EVERYWHERE I GO,
"NO MATTER WHAT OTHERS ARE
GOING THROUGH THEY MAKE IT 
NOT SHOW."

"THE COURAGE AND THE
DETERMINATION TO JUST GET
THROUGH ANOTHER DAY,
"IS ALL THAT IS NEEDED TO
MAKE EVERYTHING BE OKAY."

"THE ILLNESS THAT INSTILLS IN
ME, MAY TAKE HOLD,
"BUT THE SMILES THAT
ARE SHOWN ARE UNBELIEVABLE
AS I WAS TOLD."

"ALL THE PEOPLE JUST HELPING
IN EACH AND EVERY WAY,
"TO MAKE ME HAPPY AGAIN AS
I WAKE UP TO A BRAND
NEW DAY."

"I NEVER COULD IMAGINE HOW
YOUR TENDER HELP CAN
FEEL ON THE HEART,
ALWAYS CONTINUE TO
HELP ME, AND DON'T EVER PART."

To Fly Away

"I WILL FLY AWAY TO A PLACE
WHERE NO ONE KNOWS MY NAME,

"A PLACE THAT IS NEVER
THE SAME."

"TO A BEAUTIFULL SUNSHINE
AND A GLOW TO
EACH DAY,

"FOR TO LISTEN
TO WHAT EVERYONE
HAS TO SAY."

"NOT TO LOOK BACK
BUT TO ONLY KEEP
THE MEMORYS INTACT
IN MY BRAIN,

"FOR TO HEAR THE
BEAUTY OF THE
FALLEN RAIN."

"NO CRYS OR TEARS CAN
BE HEARD,

"TO LISTEN TO THE WIND BLOWING
AND THE SOARING OF A BIRD."

"CIRCLING FOR FOOD
TO EAT,

"PERCHING ON MY
SHOULDER TO TAKE
A SEAT."

"ONLY TO FLY AWAY
WITHOUT ANY HURT OR PAIN,

"ALL THE ILLNESSES GOING AWAY
TO A WALL LEANING ON IT
WITH A CANE."

"BEING HAPPY AND
FULL OF LIFE,

"AS I AM HAND IN HAND
WITH MY WIFE."

"TO NEVER LET HER GO
AS SHE STARTED HER JOURNEY
BEFORE ME,

"FOR ONE DAY THE CLOUDS WILL 
SUBSIDE AND THE SHADOWS WILL 
GO AWAY, AND MY VISION WILL BECOME
MUCH MORE CLEARER FOR ME TO SEE.
