| Guardian Angel One day my loved one left this world And took a part of me And yet as hours turned to days My heart began to see That loved ones never really go So very far away They curl around your shoulder When you cry and when you pray They comfort you in many ways With memories that warm And when you feel bereavement start They rush to calm the storm Just when your heart feels heaviest A void no one can fill You find your loved one has become The “angel” who loves you still |
| Don't Grow Up Too Fast Please don’t long to grow up too fast Enjoy where you are here and now Take the time to truly bask In each moment youth will allow Please don’t wish that you were older That time will come soon enough Brows will furrow and days will seem colder For now, sing out loud, smile and laugh Don’t be abashed at not knowing it all Learning should never stop It’s not a sign of weakness to fall A few times before reaching the top The things that grown-ups recall happily Are the great times we had while we grew Oh, what I’d give if just for one day I could trade places with you! |
