Grateful
"GRATEFUL"
I don't want change
I just want yesterday
But yesterday is yesterday
She was my best friend
Thought from beginning to the end
By now she's in a different land
Her journey complete, she helped me understand
I guess I've realized
Things change but we still go on
In my life, I'm alive
Seems strange, but I'm grateful for my days
I'm grateful for my days
Why did it end?
So suddenly, or did I pretend?
That everything with Mom and Dad was fine
Sometimes we ignore the most obvious signs
Together forever
A love so strong that nothing could sever
But blindness will preclude the sad
I see now that good can sometimes come from bad
I guess I've realized
Things change but we still go on
In my life, I'm alive
Seems strange, but I'm grateful for my days
I'm grateful for my days
