I remember you called me I was at work and you said son, Things are gonna change I came home and we cried together Tell me Lord, why this way You spent time in a hospital bed While others watched fireworks Blow that day in July To me they were tears Tears I’d cry The strongest man I’d ever known The bravest man Now you’re gone forever Yet I know and feel you’re still here I’ll never let you down Always make you proud Always make you proud No need to worry No need to fear It’s what I keep telling myself you hear Months went by, 8 or 9 We thought you were getting better Till we took you back in that day In came every family member Less then two weeks later you would rest It proves he only takes the best I thought I knew it all But he wasn’t around long enough to teach me Everything I wish I’d known But now it’s time to go and continue his journey Well he taught me so much And he gave me so Why oh, must his time end now I’m selfish but can you blame you Daddy, why’d you go I never missed you so I’ll never let you go

I’m seeing quite clearly you’re not the only one There is no true reason to cover up your scars The rain won’t come close to hiding all those tears I’m thinking quite sharply Oh boy its been years Open up a bright new day I really haven’t much to say I need a shoulder to lean on I need a reason to make it one more night I need a shoulder to lean on Embrace the moment everything’s alright I’m thinking quite sharply I’ll say it once again No problem I’m faced with is worth all my fears Are you gonna be there, be there till the end I wonder if I will still call you my friends Now follow me to the light I know when you’re down and I know when you’re stumbling I’ve seen all despairs oh yeah I’ve seen it comin’ I know when you’re crazy I know all you’re moods There ain’t nothing you can hide, nothing to do I know it, I know it now

I remember when I saw you there The girl with the bright blonde hair I knew right then you’d be my girl The one I’d call and say to all my friends This girl here is my Diane It wasn’t long before you lit my room The guy I’d show off to my friends, oh you Always knew what to say and do After three months later you’d be my fiance Oh Lawrence, just me and you All the things you want to do I’ll do with you Hold you tight, I’ll be there Wipe away your greatest fears We’ve got each other, got each other Through the years we’d trudge it through Had some nicks, even a bruise Life may not have been perfect dear But I gave you all I could and all I had Oh dear, I’ll be right there Let’s run away, no pain no more You’ve suffered too long and I was with you every step of the way I think it’s time for us to hold each others hand’s once again When God let’s us meet, I’ll be waiting for you arms spread

Catherine says her prayers in the morning She holds her beads as she cries Goes and sits in the chair by the telephone To hear her voice be’d divine Well I know I can’t understand All the pain going through your head Catherine spends her days staying inside All alone she cries Hear her whispering prayers under her breath For her daughter to come I see the pain in your eyes One thousand horrors you’ve seen your lifetime This pain is new and precise The loss of her from your life has been so rough You can’t give up on your lives Yet you’re stuck in this moment now praying for her on your knees Catherine, Catherine where are you going Everything will be alright Rest your head, say your prayers Not a single a tear Until your daughter comes home You gotta get away from here Turn your life inside out Because I know that you’ve been down And I know things aren’t right I know that you miss her and won’t give up without a fight But were stuck in this moment now Somewhere in the inbetween

Amazing how my life has seemed to fly by in the wind I’ve passed the days just wondering what I thought I might have been It's funny how your life can change in the blink of an eye To be selfish and not take charge would only lead self denial And so we say Hear me see me What’s supposed to be will be For this life is but a dream Hear me see me What’s supposed to be will Growing up you've seen the world evolve like a Rolling Stone You learned of love from McCartney's voice You did not stand alone A quiet girl you might have been but versed in all the arts Can not regret the little things or that which have caused harm From time to time I feel I can’t get by then I sit and think about her Things could be worse but I’m alright We’ve got it all though times are rough as long as we’re together We’ll get by one day at a time This life's mixed up but we’re alright I think it's time to move forward May be hard but we’ve got time So settle down and let me take over For you’ve shown miracles all over time The years have proved to shine a light on what we’re supposed to do Can’t explain the certain things in my life that I went through Let us all remember friends and family by our side We’ll sing until our hearts explode So shout out with a smile

Josephine 04:17
Dream come true, baby girl When we look at you Little girl, big dreams Where will this lead We're so in love but want to share it with another God blessed us with our own earth angel A masterpiece, one of His finest She is ours, can't wait to hear her laughter Her heart on loan, we'll treasure her, oh yeah His greatest gift, we'll love her Josephine, dreams do come true Josephine, little girl, big dreams Can't wait to see where this leads Named after a women of great worth Heaven's delight may she shine bright Already has her finger wrapped around her daddy A brand new life, a glorious beginning Baby girl there's no need to wait by An hour glass of shifting sand, it passes time Walk on your own with the faith and love we showed you Make your way on this sunny day

There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy And God I know I’m one My mother was a tailor She sewed my new blue jeans My father was a gamblin’ man Down in New Orleans Now the only thing a gambler needs Is a suitcase and trunk And the only time he’s satisfied Is when he’s on a drunk Oh mother tell your children Not to do what I have done Spend your lives in sin and misery In the House of the Rising Sun I got one foot on the platform The other foot on the train I’m goin’ back to New Orleans To wear that ball and chain There is a house in New Orleans They call the Rising Sun And it’s been the ruin of many a poor boy And God I know I’m one
