Life is about finding yourself
Searching for what you need
Yearning for comfort and relaxation
Something new to look forward to
Changes. . . . .
Being able to keep the faith
To have the togetherness of family
To hold them close to your hearts
And love them for eternity
Changes. . . . . .
Praying to God for compassion
Even though it already happens
In times when we don't know
We have to keep a strong hold
Changes. . . . . . . .
Searching for a special person
To share life's journey with
To have and to hold forever
To love and cherish them
To hold dear to your hearts
Changes. . . . . . . . .
Journey through hard times
Journey through pain and suffering
And to sit tight for the ride
Ensuring you hold on to the end
Changes. . . . . . . . . .
Getting up from a bad situation
Being able to be free
Loose from all pain and suffering
Creation of a new demeanor
Seeing the world open up
And turn nightmares into dreams
Keeping and sustaining Faith
Praying to God, for getting us over
Changes. . . . . . .
The mistakes of the past - disintegrated
The memories of the present - created
The plans of the future - predicted
And all is at peace with the world
Everyone goes through changes
To let go of all their troubles
To free their mind of bad memories
To gain love and understanding
To keep the Faith and pray to God
Life is about finding yourself
Searching for what you need
Yearning for comfort and compassion
Something new to look forward to
Changes. . . . . . . .
