I always picture you over there
Staring into thin air
Your beautiful mind
Yet I never know where
Tell me, where will your consciousness go
What worlds might your imagination grow
I will see them in your eyes
But will I ever get to know?
Ever since I’ve known you, you’ve been a light
From your joy to your pain
To whatever causes you fright
One of these days, you will take flight
Like a bird or maybe a plane
To simply expand your delight
Although you might see the world in black & blue
I hope you will always be true to you
From your friends to your lovers, & even your foes too
Remember who you were before you flew
Tell me, will your travels take you far?
By boat or by plane? Or even by car?
Either way, I’ll always know where you are..
You will be wise, so follow your star
I may not be happy about you leaving so soon
But your smile is all I’ll see
And I’ll know that you’re over the moon
You will live life to your own tune
With a little bit of him, & a whole lot of me
As we wait for you to come sometime in June
We are excited to know the cheer you’ll bring
And I can’t wait to teach you the songs I sing
Daily, I look at a photo of you
You’re such a small, fragile thing
Tell me, do you know who you’re coming to?
In truth, I hope you come on cue
I’d rather not wait too long
Since, for me, this is new
Tell me, are you excited too?
I’ve spent a long time praying for you.
Finally, the prayers came true.
And just so you know, I already love you.
