I look at you, and I know what my future looks like
Your smile makes me want to make this a better world
A world with a future

A future with trees
A future with the Missippi River
A future with whales
A future with clean air
A future with arable land
A future with a future

I look at you, and I know what my future looks like
Your tears make me want to fight for your generation
A generation with equality

A generation with educated girls
A generation with women's rights
A generation with safety
A generation without ****
A generation without sexism
A generation with a voice

You have become my source of faith
You have become my driven force to succeed
You have become my inspiration

I love you

I invite  three of you here on HP
to a gala on the banks of the Missippi
if you can recite for real the oath
of the Blind Deaf  Dumb  Wizards
for Truth

It will be such a party; the secret is in the words.

Turn off all the lights
Just close your eyes and hold me tight.
Turn off all the lights
I promise everything's alright.

We can go to missippi
Or maybe Italy
I know we ain't got a lot of money
But, that's okay when you're with me.

Turn off all the lights.
Just close your eyes and hold me tight.
Turn off all the lights
I promise everything's alright.

I know we ain't got much
But, love is what we've got.
We can go anywhere,
Just close your eyes.

If I could make your dreams
all come true,
Then I'd do it all for you.
Just to see that smile,
for only a moment..
All my problems go away.
And when you're with me
I feel so free,
You make me happy.
Just promise me
that you'll never leave
So we can be a family.

just turn off all the lights
close your eyes and hold me tight.
Turn off all the lights
I promise everything's alright.

— The End —
