I’m losing my life
Before my eyes
What I cherished most
I’ve learned to despise.
...

I wish the world could see me,
The way I look inside.
Instead they judge this outer shell,
Where I safely hide.
...

I found a star up in the sky,
And named it after you.
It watches over every night,
And listens closely too.
...

All the things we’ll never do,
The places we won’t travel to,
The dreams we’ll never see come true,
The love that’s gone because of you.
...

The world was once a lovely place,
And beauty shined upon her face.
But somewhere things went very wrong,
For now she sings a sorrow song.
...

It’s time to come home,
You’ve been gone long enough,
I know that it’s hard,
But you have to be tough.
...

You’ve got a hold on me
That’s tight around my neck
The nightmares they won’t stop
You’ve made my life a wreck
...

Fly away and don’t look back
Spread your wings and soar,
It is where you're meant to be
Free for evermore.
...

Close your eyes little baby,
For Mama's right here.

Don't you cry lovely baby,
...

I miss you so much,
My heart aches inside,
My feelings for you,
I can’t easily hide.
...

See my heart,
It’s torn in two,
Since you have gone away.
...

She came to me upon a whim,
One day she was just there.
I felt I’d known her forever,
But I couldn’t say from where.
...

Second Chance


I wish I knew what to believe,
...

Precious baby, joy & love,
Sent to her from God above,
Gently as if from a dream,
Floating on the breath of spring.
...

Why can’t you
Just set me free
Go on with your life
And let me be?
...

I may not be skinny,
She may not be fat,
But that is all,
I’ll say about that.
...

Daddy we miss you
Why did you go?
Did you leave,
‘Cause we did something wrong?
...

You’re killing me
It’s all so wrong
Why did you leave?
It’s been too long.
...
