She sat alone in her big red chair
This world was more than she could bear

She sat so still as if paralyzed
You could see the sorrow in her eyes
She did not want to move
Afraid if she did she would fall apart
Limb by limb down to her broken heart

So she continued to sit in her big red chair
Wondering how life could be so unfair

Will she ever move again
Or has she finally reached her end

There was a time, I do believe
When life was easy, each day was a breeze

It must have been when I was born
Before this world got to me with its prickly thorns

How I wish I could go back in time
Listening to my mother singing nursery rhymes

Every need was cared for, no need for fear
Hardly a reason to shed a tear

No worry of money, a job or a home
As soon as I could crawl, I was free to roam

Now I’m a grownup, at least that’s what I’m told
I look in the mirror and am amazed I got old

I want to be pure again, free from past sin
I would do anything to start over again

He told me he loved me so many times before
Yet I’m always left with tears staining the floor

What do I believe, what can I trust
How many more chances before my heart busts

The knife has hit many times before
Blood dripping from the back of the door

The door you slammed, right in my face
I cannot continue this cat and mouse chase

Every time you left
You took a piece of my heart
Do I take a chance again, or make a new start?

Don’t run off, I don’t want to scare you away
I’m sure you’ll have fun if you come out to play

My tongue is deadly
It’s a very strong tool
It’ll take over your body
You’ll be mine to rule

I’ll warn you once
My powers are wicked
Pleasures are many
You’ll soon be addicted

So are you ready for the time of your life
No need to worry, I won’t tell your wife

Today is truly all we have
This took a long time to learn
Make the most of the day ahead
Look for excitement around every turn

Make the most of every moment
Send positive vibes at every chance
Sing from the top of your lungs
Get up from your seat and dance

Smile often, laugh even more
Give a compliment, hold open a door

We may be only here for today
Let’s live a good life and do it God’s way!

The sun is rising
Above the clouds
Slowly it comes
Waking up the crowds

What would we do
Without its magical light
The world would be dark
No sparkling daylight

I can’t imagine a world without sun
I don’t believe I’m the only one
The winter comes and gray covers the sky
Enough to make me break down and cry

I need the sun
Like the air I breathe
It’s one of the things both my mind and body needs

Depressing is a day
Without the sun
Everything is black
Dark and glum

I will praise the sun
In all its glory
Appreciate its beauty
And end this story

I wish I wish
Upon a star
I had a magic cookie jar

Inside the jar would contain
Peace and love and happiness
No war, no crime and no more pain

I’d open the jar and let the rays out
To cross the earth, flutter all about

Touch everyone and everything
From the smallest grain of sand
to the Majestic Eagle’s wing

Until I find that special jar, I’ll bend down on one knee
And pray for that day
When all our troubles go away

What a wonderful world it would be
When I close my eyes, this is the world I see
