Our Time

I wish we could have had our time

a shame we'll never know

How sad the spark that lit a fire

left embers in the snow...

My heart was there within your hands

was falling hard and fast

No one could make ever know

our time would never last...

I spoke of feelings deep within

was there all on my sleeve

I never thought that you would go

that you would ever leave...

Magic Moment

The magic moment we both shared

it sealed our destiny

The spark that lit a raging fire

now burns eternally...

My Mind

My mind tries to reason

with me every day

To move on from hoping

let pain go away...

My mind often tells me 

to let it all go

That I'll find another 

and love with her know...

My mind often shows me 

a memory or two

Of how much she hurt me

and what I've been through...

My mind is the problem

has been for a while

My heart will keep waiting

to see her sweet smile...

Our Heroes

Today we remember

the price that was paid

The Heroes who loved us

and where they are laid...

Today we remember

all those that were lost

The champions of freedom

we weep at the cost...

Today we remember

their families too

What they have all given

for me and for you...

Falling Little Tear

Guarded in my choice of words

oh please don’t walk away…

Feelings deep within my heart

so much I want to say…

I’ve waited all my life for you

and now you’re standing here…

The moment that I’ve dreamed about

a falling little tear…

Looking Back

When I was young I laughed a lot

the world, much simpler then

Everyone I met in life

I counted as a friend...

A new adventure every day

no end to all the joy

Fridays were our special night

the girls were cute and coy...

But then one summer all would change

on graduation night

Hugs and kisses everyone

and then we all took flight...

Early in the Morning

Lord, I wake to pray again

and raise my hands to you

Giving thanks for all you've done 

and what you soon will do...

You always meet me when I call

your presence I can feel

A meeting with the Holy one

so tangible and real...

Make my heart your dwelling place

my mouth your voice to speak

Help me Lord to follow you

your will, to always seek...
