I’m trying to find something to base my life upon,
Something in this strange world that goes on and on.
As the years go by and time fades away,
What used to be "good days" are now filled with dismay.
Tomorrow comes, and then again, it goes,
And my ambition to become something more, grows and grows.
Around the corner, yet miles away,
The life I want now, gets closer each day.
All I've ever wanted was something to live for,
I don’t want to be this little person anymore.
I’ve been basing my life upon what others think,
I wish I could go back and redo everything, every time an eye would blink.
I've fought to become who I am and what I want to be,
I have to remind myself that one day, I will be free.
Free from the rules I followed as a child,
When everything was a game and life was so mild.
Now times have changed and I realize nothing is fair,
And sometimes it seems like nobody even cares.
It’s like no one pays attention to what I feel is best for me,
And what I think about the way some things should be.
I understand now, that I’m pretty much on my own,
And I know a lot of what I can do will never be known.
All the time, I think about everything I can’t say, what I have to keep in,
And by doing this, my thoughts only get more complicated and deepen.
Soon I hope to find out who I am, and what I am meant to become,
I want to know where I’m going, I don’t need to be reminded of where I came from.

Winter is cold, with gusts of tumbling snow
When rain falls down and nothing ever grows
For children it's the snow that they desire
And cups of co-co in front of the fire

When winters gone, the grass grows green again
Roses and Tulips sprout, with bright green stems
The bees are buzzing, the birds are singing
Sheep are grazing and cow bells are ringing

And then the sun starts to shine too brightly
It's so hot that fans are put on nightly
And so then it's off to the beach or pools
Where people swim about just to keep cool

All the leaves on the trees turn golden-brown
And when on the ground make a crackly sound
In autumn a lot of money you make
For clearing backyards of leaves with a rake

Each season has its own goods and its bads
But since they are all different I am glad!

This is not the end
You will be missed down here below,
For we really did not want to see you go.
But God had other plans for you
He had heavenly work for you to do.
The time you spent down here with us,
Oh how we enjoyed you so very much.
You made us laugh by the things you would say.
We will always think of you each and every day.
Even when you were in pain, you managed to smile.
You were a true gentleman with dignity and style.
But now you are with God in that Heavenly place,
And your smile is now all over your face.
You and the angels are having a ball,
And now you are waiting for us to join you all.
We can’t wait to be with you in that heavenly home in the sky,
Where we will never have to say goodbye.
For we will all be together again,
And there will never be an end.
We will all be with Jesus, our Heavenly big Brother,
And we will all be rejoicing with one another.
For this is not the end, it is just goodbye,
Until we all meet again in that Home in the sky.
So to God be the glory for what he has done,
He came and got another son.
Maybe, someday,
Your voice will become part of
The wind
That everyone will breathe
And love until the very last one
Because  you are now a part of the
World
A part of a breeze
A part of me

I treasured you in my heart,
I wished we'd never be apart,
Cause you're the best thing I've ever had,
I never thought I could be this sad.

You told me you're better off alone,
Somehow I believed you and I tried to be strong.
Deep inside me I know something is wrong,
But because I loved you I continued to hold on.

And then one day I woke up with tears in my eyes,
I told myself "that's enough" and so I realized,
That I've given everything I've ever had,
But despite all of these, you chose to break my heart.

It's true I've never been perfect,
But I thought you told me that every one has it's own defects,
I know I hurt you, I know I made you cry,
But I've always been true to you, my love was never a lie.

So go on, live your life the way it should be,
I'm finally letting go, so now you're free,
I'm moving on, but I will always remember,
The friend I had in you that I hope I'll have forever.

— The End —
