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
The days turn into weeks
Let our hearts be light,
For it's 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
Obscuring 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
May we 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 things to say
We are better navigators than at times we seem
Get out your map and compass
And lead us to our dream
