The Heartbeat

Every night when i'm laying my head to rest
and i hear your heartbeat on my chest 
lets me know that i'm doing alright

i thought i lost you in that hospital room
when they couldn't find a beat
it scared me to death and my heart skipped
we all seen the line and thought you were dead

But that night i looked up
and within the tears running down my cheek
i saw an angel watching over him and me 
she looked at me and smiled then flew away
i looked at my baby and saw him awake

I didn't know what to believe
but i saw that angel in front of me
i thank her every night i lay my head to say goodnight
cause the beat i feel on my chest 
is in my arms and not laid to rest 

My baby just turned 5 today 
his heart beat had faded away
but i'm glad i got all i could get with him
for the angel who saved him has taken him
but before he went he said to me
the angel you saw i can now see
 she is standing right in front of me
goodbye mommy and i love you daddy

That Place In the Sky(Aunt Lucy)

Just to think you will be gone
and i will be here to stay strong
scares me to death and makes me cry

although you will be watching in the skies
i will be praying everyday that goes by
say hello to Timmy and bobby
we have all missed them down here real badly

Tell god he should have waited
to let you grow older and not miss everything
like the birth of your grand son glen jr

Remember when you go up to the place in the sky
that we will miss you everyday that goes by
and when you hug Timmy and everybody up there
make sure to fill them in about everybody down here

If its not to much to ask just give us a sign
that you have made it up to that place in the sky
and that you have seen the man who takes everyone's life
Just try to let us know everything is alright


it seems so wrong but just hold on
our tears that you see coming down our cheeks
just is our feelings that we held in so deep
but time is haulting and the rain is falling
because when you are gone
time and life will all come to a stop
but we will take a deep breath
and soon we will all live on 
because we know your an angel flying high
to that place in the sky

The Letter

I've fallen today on the war field
with my gun and a picture of you 
these are my final words hear them loud
for i hear the angels singing in the clouds

your my everything,your my world
make sure to kiss our little girls
say goodbye to my mom and hug my dad
and don't forget the wonderful  life we've had

now i hear amazing grace coming closer to me
this note that i am writing is for your eyes to see
i hope someone will give to you this letter for me
because i will pass on today for the land of the free

i see the gates and i am about to go in
so these last few words is all i can do
my breathing is getting harder and its time for me to go
so baby i love you and I'll be watching you, maybe
not in person but in soul, tell our girls their mom loves them so

so whenever you are lonely,i will be there
and tell our little girls to keep up with there prayers
cause i will be listening all the way up here

I Dare You

I'm not hiding in my room
Im going to take that warrant off you
so the police don't have to handle my feud 
i have my rifle and my 42 I dare you

I dare you to come around
and knock me down on my face
your such a disgrace to the human race
I dare you

I dare you to try to hurt me again
with those fists and those words 
I'm not scared no more 
so try to swing this way
you wont see another day

I dare you to try to come back to this town
i got my rifle and my 42 and a couple men who
would love to beat you
i dare you

i was scared and terrified that you would see me again
and i wouldn't be so lucky to get a hold of my friends 
to help me defend the man who could take my life but
I dare you

I got my rifle and my 42
i dare you to try to swing this way
you wont see another day
i dare you

How Am I Supposed To Feel

How am I supposed to feel
If I don’t feel anything no more
You say you will walk out that door
Why do I not care anymore

You say I’ve been cheating
You say you  caught me talking to some guy, 
but I’m done crying, lying and pleading for you 
Cant you tell I am through
Your to jealous to comprehend
I think this is the end

How am I supposed to feel
If I don’t feel anything no more 
You say you will walk out that door 
Why do I not care anymore

I’m supposed to feel lost and scared
But really I just don’t care
I’m sick of you complaing that I’m through
Just go and walk out that door
I know I’m not guilty your just bored
Trying to make look like a whore
But I’m not so just quit it

How am I supposed to feel
If I don’t feel anything no more
You say you love me but that’s a lie
You would do anything to say goodbye

I’m tired of you and I’m tired of this
I don’t feel like fighting for something I don’t even feel for
So I’m through and I’m walking out that door.

Love Makes It Through the Seasons

when the leaves begin to change 
and the air becomes much colder
when the sun sets much earlier
and the mood becomes more somber

every passing day every passing hour
it changes the way i live forever
summer turns to fall and fall turns to winter
winter turns to spring and we are still together

when the sun comes up till the sun goes down
i know you will always walk through those doors
and come home and love me from january to december

you have my heart and i have yours
i know we have eternity together
i know we cant live without each other
if your not here than im not either

I know the day will come when we have to seperate
but it will be okay because we can make it through anything
i know you will wait for me and ill do the same for you
the waiting will be painful but our love is rare and true

Flashing Lights

Walking down a road one night
I saw a car coming and before i could move
it hit me but before it did i had racing thoughts go in my head 
and memories I had with my friends 
those flashing lights made me remember

We were swinging by the lake 
watching the sun come up
eating some icecream cake
then we were on a picnic cloth, holding hands, listening to old men talk 
then falling in love
thats what flashed back in to my eyes 
when i saw those flashing lights

3 years from that day i think back to what could have happened
 but im glad im okay and that i am here still today
 i have changed for the better and not let life pass me by
 everday is another one and i will make the best of it 
I will try not to cry so much 
you never know tomorrow you could see those flashing lights 

When you see those lights you remeber all the good times in your life
like holding hands on the beach, eating some wild icecream
going to london and relaxing in rome and calling greece your wonderful home
then seeing your kids grow old
those flashing lights remind you of your life and your shaky roads

Now im old and gray and i know my time is coming
as i lay there in my bed and i hear the angels humming
i look up into the sky and know its going to be alright
and feel my last breath coming and i see those flashing lights

I remember holding my baby girl and kissing my husband on my wedding day
 i remember the way my daddy looked at me when he found out i was moving away 
or when my mom used to call me every single day 
but now i know its my time to go and everythings okay
those flahing lights are now fading away

Baby I Can See It In You

Baby o baby I see it in your eyes
I see it in every tear you’ve cried
I see it in every lie you’ve lied
I see it in you so don’t even try

Baby o baby there will come a time
when you will try to go
And then come back think everything is fine
I see it in your soul 
Why do you take me like that? 
Why do you mess me around
Shake me up and crumble me to the ground

I see it in your eyes 
I hear it in every word you say
Don’t give me those same old lines
That I always hear you say

Baby o baby why do you feel 
That it is necessary to tear me away
Was nothing good enough? 
What about our love, there was a time
When I thought you were forever mine

But now your torn in two,Oh whatever will you do
But I’m sick of waiting and wondering
You’re not worth my time
And there will be another man who will be forever mine

O baby o baby I hear you now 
I see you crumbling to your knees
Now that you’re not in control
You want the best of me

Should I take you back?
I don’t think I should
You want me to tell you how I feel
Well this is how I feel 

I can see it in your eyes
The look of despise 
I’m pouring out my soul
This beyond my control

All I wanted was you
But what I got was a tramp
Who took all if you
Is this what I get?

For loving you and giving and forgetting of all the regrets
Well you’re on your knees
And I’m up here thinking should I take you back
Or should I just keep waiting

I see it in you that you’re not right
I see it in you all of those nights
That you weren’t home
And I was alone

I see it in that you’re not the one
Those are my feelings now get out
I am done.

Forgive Me

Let me love you like you loved me
take me away to the valley and seas
let me be the one you want me to be 
just let me love you like you always loved me

There are many times when i wasn't there
but now i see my mistakes real clear
your to good to let go 
don't let me slip away don't let this be a joke

You went out of your way 
the first time you saw me
you jumped up and down
and screamed real loudly 

finally though i agreed to a date
from then on we were meant to be
for i knew i would grow old
and be very happy

but i know i did wrong
when i got in that bed
with that man who i knew and would become to dread
please forgive me and sweep me off my feet
for i killed myself when i hurt you most
Forgive me please This is my last request

Forgive me please for i will be alone till death

The Sad Songs

There are times in my life 
when I'm driving down a road on a starry night
i think to myself and i look up into the skies
I wonder if you can see every tear that I've cried

I turn down the radio because it playing all those sad songs
that you just don't want to hear 
it just brings back all the pain and fear you went through
it brings me back to the last time i had to spend with you

Everytime i hear a song, that reminds me of you
I just turn it down, wipe my eyes 
hold my heart, drive on by 
nothing in this world will bring you back
its time for me to realize that 

When all the tears have fallen from my eyes
I look back up at that starry sky
and wish upon a star 
to heal my broken heart
