My parents' bedroom is far from mine, so I have to wonder
What the noise is every night that sounds a lot like thunder.
We don't live near the seashore, but almost every morn
I'm awakened by a noise that sounds like a foghorn.
It's louder than the sound of barking dogs at night
Or a fireworks explosion that lights the sky real bright.
A chainsaw cutting logs doesn't make as much din,
Nor did the wall coming down way over in Berlin.
A jet plane at takeoff will get your attention quick,
As will a jackhammer engaged in busting up some brick.
But neither equals the clamor from Mom and Dad's bedroom,
Worse than a stick of dynamite at the moment of KABOOM!
At last, I figured out the source of all the raucous roaring.
It was only good old Dad engaging in some snoring
Mom says: "I don't mind; it's a Godsend
That all that wind isn't coming out the other end."
Do you remember, when we were young, those promises we made?
The promise to be there for
The first time we ever met
Your name was all I knew
But as we got to know each ot
It wrecks me, that last moment
that played out so wrong.
Our hopeless eyes locked
Be The Best Of Whatever Who You Are
If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill,
Be a scrub in the valley — but be
After the fierce midsummer all ablaze
Has burned itself to ashes, and expires

When I Die I Want Your Hands On My Eyes
When I die I want your hands on my eyes:
I want the light and the wheat of your beloved h
The Hardest Thing I'll Ever Do
The hardest thing I'll ever do
Is let go of you
And look forward instead of back
Together we may struggle
but without you all I feel is pain.
Sometimes I may seem
Love me tomorrow, for it is a new day
Love me again like you did the first day
Lo
It's getting cold and I'm getting lonely
Wishing someone would sit down and hold me
