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."
You entered the room and my heart skipped a beat
I knew in an instant we were destined to
Just for today,
Can we forget about race,
Colour, religion
A bunch of flowers,
A homemade cake,
That special gift,
A birthday steak.
I called you late last night
because I needed a friend.
But you, of course, didn'
Don't live in anger, with fear and regrets.
Seek forgiveness and lay your pain to rest.
Always and forever is so far away,
But know I'll stand by you for every last day,
You're the one for me
'cause you were made just for me.
Now I'm standing in front
When a friend calls to me from the road
And slows his horse to a meaningful walk,
I live in most, if not all, children.
Many teenagers neglect me, and usually, all adults
Somewhere I Have Never Travelled, Gladly Beyond
somewhere I have never travelled, gladly beyond
