It’s been a while since I saw your smile

I’ve walked a lonely road

So many lonely miles

I didn’t get to hold you one more time

You didn’t get to show me one more smile

No lullabyes, no kiss goodnight

No “dry your eyes ’cos, hey, ev’rything’s gonna be alright”

Well, I don’t know where Heaven lies

But I’ll meet you there in time

They say time heals

Well, what do they know?

The heart that grieves is like the river that flows

We didn’t get to say what’s on our minds

We didn’t get to do so many things

No nursery rhymes, no kiss goodbye

A few photographs are all I have of your short life

Well, I don’t know where Heaven lies

But I’ll meet you there in time

It’s been a while since I saw your smile

I’ve walked a lonely road

So many lonely miles

Baby died at seventeen

Didn’t realise a single dream

Daddy cried, poor thing

Couldn’t see the point in anything

Without Ba__a__a__a by

Mommy tried to bring him round

Said Baby was with Jesus now

But he didn’t hear a thing

We’ve got a long way to go

There’s a long road ahead

But we’ve got a whole box of wishes that are gonna come true

And I‘ve got a pocketful of stars

That I’m going to put back into your eyes

So that when you smile

You’ll out-shine Mr Moo_______n

There’s a battle ahead

And I’m gonna fight it with you

Remember all the things we said we’re gonna do?

And if you look down deep inside

That’s where Mr Courage hides

And when tears sting your eyes

He’ll come out for you_________

We’ve got a long way to go

There’s a long road ahead

But we’ve got a whole box of wishes that are gonna come true_____

Mommy, please don’t make me sit in that dark room

Please, don’t lock the door I promise I won’t scream

And, when you say you hate the thought of

Everything I’m part of

Mommy, who am I just like?

What do you mean?

Mother Nature, when you weep

Spring will soon be here

Winter’s on his deathbed

And very soon, he’ll sleep

When you dry your eyes

And blow away the dead leaves from your hair

Your smile brings sunny skies

And breathes life into the trees

You show your dis-pleasure in definite ways

No-one can escape your icy stare

When you’re angry, your dark eyes blaze

But you show your love in all the hot, summer days

Lovers come, lovers go, and leave you lonely

You give your heart, they steal your soul

And go wherever the wind blows

Vampire lovers, they'll bleed you dry

Feed on your emotions, then say goodbye

Bedroom schemers, they'll steal you blind

And drown you in the debris they leave behind

Lovers come, lovers go, and leave you lonely....
