' There is a question i would like to ask you ',
a young girl said to me,
it took me by surprise, as it came out of the blue,
so i said ' Please feel free ',
...

I spend all day driving around,
the engine noise not the only sound,
rattling window's, creak's from the floor,
wind howling in through the closed door,
...

We got a kitten the other day,
and all she want's to do,
is play,
and go to the loo,
...

Anniversaries come and go,
I write this to let you know,
time with you goes so fast,
our future together is soon our past,
...

Home, where in the inglenock burning so bright,
making flickering shadow's through-out the night,
flaming log's moving and turning,
spitting, snapping shooting ember's burning,
...

I hide my eye's,
so i don't see you,
i can't tell you lie's,
you hurt me deep and true,
...

I love Lyme Regis,
the pink and white cottage's,
and the deep blue sea,
the pebble on sandy beach's where the children play,
...

...

Bird's are singing a beautiful song,
singing their song all day long,
message's sent back and forth,
from the south and the north,
...

...

Outside of heaven's door,
there is a bell to ring,
when you pull the cord,
you'll hear a heavenly choir sing.
...

In the clear cold night sky,
as far as the eye can fly,
the brilliant star's i see,
the silence is so noisy,
...

Someone has been out all night,
while i've been here at home,
someone will probably look a sight,
as i've waited here alone.
...

Come on, come out to play,
on this wet rainy day,
running in between the drop's,
getting wet before it stop's,
...

Oh to be ugly and thick,
to have been touched by the ugly stick,
so my look's would not fade away,
i would be ugly every day,
...

I open my eye's and i'm looking up at the sky,
the bright star's are twinkling and a gleaming bright moon,
i feel wetness and droplets hitting my eye,
i wonder if i can move soon.
...

I dream a dream,
a dreamer's dream,
it's not like anything i have seen,
pretty rainbow's with white fluffy cloud's,
...

I see they've got a Christmas tree,
is it for them or is it for me,
this must be a gift for me,
i shall wait and see.
...

...

You didn't give me the gift of life,
you gave me the gift to live life,
you gave me the will to live life,
you gave me the love to live life,
...
