Laughing giggles where did they go?
Frowns are the only thing right now we know
What happened to us? why did we grow
So far apart like warm earth beneath snow

Bring back the light to warm our days
The cold is mean and bleak.

The seasons change too quickly and the days turn into weeks

Let our hearts be light, for in the dark they seize

And make our days so painful that all we see are trees

The trees they are so big and tall and obscure the simple path

The forest awaits with its wisdom
If we can avoid the wrath

The wrath with which we self destroy the path we've already worn

The one made of our history
And of the vows we've sworn.

Let the forest be our goal
Who cares about the trees?
With love and faith and kindness we can navigate with ease

And let us recollect all the times we've had along the way--the good, the bad, the in between they all have something to say

We are better navigators than at times we seem

Get out your map and compass and lead us to our dream
