I love you my baby
I love you my friend
love you past always
it never will end
You are my sweetest, dearest friend
and from now til forever
my hope I will send
And in the darkest hours
before the dawn breaks
And in the misty mornings
when you're poor heart aches
you are never alone
you are never alone
though the way may be shrouded
and your soul, it may groan
I promise you true
you are never alone...

The Bird
If you are a bird
Then you can fly
Above the clouds
Across the sky
You can fly home
Where you long to be
Or you can turn around
And be set free
Sometimes facing forward
Is harder than looking back
Though the past is full of pain
And it stops you in your tracks
The pain can be comforting
The familiar ache, a balm
It can’t become any worse
In the darkness, there is calm
The terror in the night
That you try to push away
The twisted belief in your weakness
You are too scared to say
Maybe she was right
For doing what she did
Maybe you created this
Behind this truth you’ve hid
But maybe she was hurting
And needed something more
And maybe when she first cried out
You somehow shut the door
And into the mirror
As you sometimes stare
You see a face of failure
Someone beyond repair
Oh-the lies you tell yourself
That keep you in your pain
It breaks my heart to watch
Only sadness can remain
So what if you are broken
And have quirks and problems galore?
So what if you need time alone
To process, to unwind, to endure?
So what if you notice every single thing
In a movie or in a song?
What an amazing gift you’ve been given
Accept it and move along
For as you stand right here
In pieces and full of pain
You are unique and beautiful
No one is quite the same
You came to fulfill your destiny
To create, to sing, to see
In every waking moment
Embrace who you are to be
God gave me a gift last summer
He opened my eyes to you
I’ve never seen with such clarity
The soul that I see in you
So if you ever wonder
And when you begin to fall
Ask me to remind you
For I love you all in all
You'll do this on your own
You need to go inside and deep
But there will be a time
When in peace, you’ll sleep
And I will stand there crying
Grateful for the day
When your hurt and pain departs
And you fly away…
Then you can fly
Above the clouds
Across the sky
You can fly home
Where you long to be
Or you can turn around
And be set free
Sometimes facing forward
Is harder than looking back
Though the past is full of pain
And it stops you in your tracks
The pain can be comforting
The familiar ache, a balm
It can’t become any worse
In the darkness, there is calm
The terror in the night
That you try to push away
The twisted belief in your weakness
You are too scared to say
Maybe she was right

Behind this truth you’ve hid
But maybe she was hurting
