THE STRINGS
LET THE SOUND
FLOW
OUT GOES MY
HEART
WITH VISIONS
LONG GONE
AND
WE RAISE OUR
KIDS WITH
HOPE
WE DO ALL
WE CAN
FOR THEM
WE LET THEM
WALK OUT
THE DOOR
WHEN OLDER
FOR THEIR
LIFE TO GROW
WITH ALL
WE TEACH
AND PREACH
AND GUIDE
AND PROTECT
WE LET THEIR
WINGS
TAKE THEM
WHERE IT WILL
GO
TELLING THEM
IF THEY
EVER NEED
US WE ARE
RIGHT HERE
WE HOPE
FOR THEM
ALL WILL BE
WELL
AND GREAT
AND GOOD
AND KNOW
ITS A BIG
WHEN WE
LET THEM GO
LIKE A BUTTERFLY
AND LOVE
CARRIES
IN OUR HEARTS
EVERY BEAT
EVERY SECOND
EVERY HUG
EVERY THOUGHT
EVERY LITTLE
THING
AND SOMETIMES
TEARS WILL
FALL
WITH THE WINGS
AND WE HAVE
TO BE
WHAT WE
CAN
IN A WAY
THEY LET US IN
OR NOT
HOPE THEY
TURN OUT OK
TIME
...
THE ENDLESS
CYCLE OF LIFE
WITH EACH
SEASON
WE GREET IT
FROM THE DAY
WE ALL ARE
BORN
TO THE SECOND
THAT
ITS BACK
TO THE DUST
AND ALL THAT
IS INBETWEEN
WE
CHERISH
EVERY LAUGH
EVERY SMILE
EVERY TEAR
EVERY HURT
EVERY LITTLE THING
AND WHEN ITS GONE
WE SIT HERE
AND HOLD
THE MEMORIES
LIKE A TREASURE
KNOWING
THEY ARE OK
WHERE EVER THEY ARE
FOR THAT IS
ALL WE HAVE
TO
BELIEVE
TO KEEP
SAFE
THE FINGERS
MOVE
OVER THE STRINGS
AND THE SOUND
RINGS
OUT LOUD
OVER AND OVER
EACH MOTHER
EACH FATHER
EACH CHILD
KNOWS
WE ALL KNOW
ONE WAY OR
ANOTHER
OUR HEARTS
SOMETIMES
BLEED
AND ARE WOUNDED
SOMETIMES
HEALED
SOMETIMES
FEAR
SETS IN
SOMETIMES
ITS REAL
SOMETIMES
ITS NOT
ITS BECAUSE
WE LOVE
WITH ALL
OUR BEING
THAT KEEPS
THE WORLD
GOING
ON
AND WE ALL
FIGHT FOR
THAT FREEDOM
RIGHT
IN OUR OWN
WAYS
WHEN ITS
THREATENED
AND
RIPPED RIGHT OUT
FROM US
WE SCREAM
WE SHOUT
WE CRY
OUT LOUD
KNOWING
WHEN THAT
SECOND
COMES
AND
THERE IS NO
WAY TO
SAY
HEY DON’T GO
STAY
WE FIND
WAYS TO DEAL
WITH IT
SOME DAYS
ITS HARDER THAN
OTHERS
SOMETIMES
WE NEED THAT
UP LIFTING
SPIRIT
TO GUIDE US
THAT ALL WILL
BE OK
WHEN ALL AROUND
US
THERE IS NOTHING
TO GIVE
THAT HOPE
THATS WHEN
WE HAVE
TO RELY ON
FAITH
AND
LET IT ALL OUT
FOR ONLY
TIME
WILL
TELL...
AND IN
THEM OUR
HEARTS GO
AND
IN OUR HEARTS
WE HOLD
THEM
FOREVER
THERE.
KISSING
THE SUN
AND TEARS FALL
AS I
SIT AND
WAIT
WITH DREAMS
ON THE
WIND
AND
LET THE WINGS
OF ANGELS
FLY
TO GUIDE
AND PROTECT
WHERE
I CAN’T BE.
