Hurricane Michael

So much was lost in just a day

the storm that changed our lives

We never thought this day would come

somehow our town survives...

Gone are all the lights and trees

debris is everywhere

What's left is now a sorted heap

we sift through what's still there...

We're going to make it all come back

the promise we all say

How do we heal the troubled minds

that can't get past that day?...

Home Town

I'm back to where it all began

but all my friends aren't here

How the memories come to me

they all now gather near...

We always said we'd come back home

I waited far too long

The old home town looks much the same

but something's very wrong...

So many faces I don't know

they give a passing glance

I search each one in hopes I'll find

a kindred soul by chance...

I still can hear the music play

the parties at the lake

The many times we gathered there

the friendships we would make...

Fate

I still remember what you said

so many years ago

Had fate just waited one more day

a shame we'll never know...

Sometimes a memory comes to me

and tears begin to fall

Oh the many times I've sighed

we could have had it all...

Every time I reached for you

the timing wasn't right

And when at last you called for me

our chance was gone that night...

I hope one day you'll read these words

and know just how I feel

A lifetime knowing I was wrong

a heart that still can't heal...
