In darkened space behind a sofa-set I pause my return from the kitchen The eyes of my family are watching TV And for that they cannot see me What’s on the screen is not to my taste Too innocent and foolish – It's true. I am quite smug! But the laughs, the smiles, and sparkling eyes Oh my family, on my heart you do tug A gentle warm wash pours over my soul An unexpected deep sweet euphoria Just a simple reminder how blessed it can be To be part of a family

Watching the Wonderful
In darkened space behind a sofa-set I pause my return from the kitchen The eyes of my family are watching TV And for that they cannot see me What’s on the screen is not to my taste Too innocent and foolish – It's true. I am quite smug! But the laughs, the smiles, and sparkling eyes Oh my family, on my heart you do tug A gentle warm wash pours over my soul An unexpected deep sweet euphoria Just a simple reminder how blessed it can be To be part of a family
