Walking through the garden
Feel the moss between my toes
Butterflies wings fluttering
Landing on a rose

Hosta leaves holding water
Enough for a snail to drink
The feeling here so tranquil
It gives me time to think

Sitting under the cherry tree
Soaking up the sun
Two dragonflies dancing
Looks like they're having fun

As I continue down the path
I came across a tree
Initials carved in the bark
Made by you and me

It's here where we had our first kiss
Its here where we fell in love
Sometimes I come here to this spot
To pray to God above

Thankful for this day
And all the promise it brings
Enjoying this precious moment
While the songbird sings

As this special time wains
And I rejoin my life
I'll carry this moment with me
As long as your my wife
Lying on my death bed
Standing on the brink
How would I feel?
What would I think?

Would I feel regret
For the things that didn't get done?
Or was my life complete
Filled with family love and fun?

I wish I wasn't leaving you
I wish that I could stay
My love for you can never die
Lasting forever and a day

When the time has come
When my last breath I'll take
I'll know the love we had was real
Something we never had to fake

I'll wait for you in heaven
Outside the pearly gate
Being together for eternity
Has always been our fate
Sometimes
in the middle of the night
I sit in the middle of my country
in the middle of my state
in the middle of my town
in the middle of my neighborhood
in the middle of my house
in the middle of my room
in the middle of my bed
wondering
what the hell happened to my life?
and how the hell did I get here?
and as a matter of fact,
who the hell am I
and
what the hell am I planning to do
with the rest of my life?
