You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

You are always there
And forever fair
A shoulder to cry on
All life long
Best days are spent with you
And the family too
Ever loving, never fading
With a smile, simply loving


You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

Even when we argue
I always know what you do
You do because you love me
This I can see
I will never go far
Because of all you are
Everything leads back here
With you there’s no fear
Simply because


You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

You and I together
Side by side forever
Showing me the way
Each and every day
We are stronger
Now we’ve travelled further
Ever loving, ever protecting
Ever caring, ever hoping
That’s you because

You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

You are the reason
That I’m alive
You brought me up
To  know what’s right
You loved me
No matter what


You are my mother
You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

 
I wrote this pretty recently, and I really like it...one of my best I think!


A perfect person
Never does wrong
Never waits too long
Always knows what to say
Always has their own way
Never drives too fast
Never comes last
A perfect person
Doesn’t exist
(Doesn’t exist)


We’re not perfect
You and I
But we are real
Simply because
We’re not perfect

A beautiful surgeon
Never says I can’t
Never says I won’t
Always dresses to impress
Always looks the best
Never keeping silent
Never refusing a chance to vent
Always doing what’s right
Always up for a fight
She’s not perfect

We’re not perfect
You and I
But we are real
Simply because
We’re not perfect

An incredible actress
Never takes it slow
Never recognises her foe
Always hopes for the best
Always wonders what’s next
Never sleeps in late
Never believes in fate
Always loved by the press
Always says more is less
She’s not perfect

We’re not perfect
You and I
But we are real
Simply because
We’re not perfect

A fantastic singer
Never gives in
Never hurts her kin
Always drives fast
Always makes it last
Never stops working
Never stops singing
Always excepts her past
Always know the cost
She’s not perfect

We’re not perfect
You and I
But we are real
Simply because
We’re not perfect

A loveable businesswoman
Never short of cash
Never ready for the dash
Always hoping for more
Always the true core
Never excepting of her life
Never liking the knife
Always up the game
Always there when they came
She’s not perfect


We’re not perfect
You and I
But we are real
Simply because
We’re not perfect

The powerful teacher
Never says no
Never goes with the flow
Always stands for what she believes in
Always there for her kin
Never lets you go
Never falls down low
Always knows what to do
Always knows how to
She’s not perfect

We’re not perfect
You and I
But we are real
Simply because
We’re not perfect

We’re not perfect
No one is
Why would you want to be
Why, oh, why
We’re not perfect
You and I
 
It takes just a moment
To say hello
But it takes forever
To say goodbye
I never want to say
Goodbye to you

It takes just a moment
But I never took that moment
I never said hello
Now I can’t bring
Myself to say goodbye
To you, even though I should

It takes just a moment
To say hello
But it takes forever
To say goodbye

It takes just a moment
And I wish for the moment
To last forever
I wish I could stay
And be with you always
But its time for me to go

It takes just a moment
To say hello
But it takes forever
To say goodbye

It takes just a moment
Here I am in tears
Welling in my eyes
Knowing what Ive got to say
But this is taking forever
Because I’m saying goodbye

It takes just a moment
To say hello
But it takes forever
To say goodbye

I never want to say
Goodbye to you
 
I Wrote This Song For Sara, Because She Saved My Life. And I Love Her More Than Words Can Ever Explain. She Is My Surrogate Mother x

You broke my walls,
I never thought I could let you in
No matter how much I wanted to,
I was just afraid to trust you
But you proved me wrong every day,
Showed me you wouldn’t ever hurt me,
You stood by my side and
Helped me cope, helped me survive

Why I will never know,
Never know why you choose to help me
Choose to let me close
When I needed someone,
 Yes, I will never know why

You showed me you could be trusted
I never thought I would again
Yet you showed me I could
You let me cry on your shoulder,
Let me unburned my fears on you
And slowly I did start to trust
Because I realized you wanted to help
Help me get my life back
And you broke that wall around my heart

Why I will never know,                                                
Never know why you choose to help me
Choose to let me close
When I needed someone,
Yes, I will never know why

And so I now just want to say this,
Over time you have shown me that
Some things have to be done,
Some things have to be said
So I am going to do and say this,
Without you I wouldn’t be here today,
The person I am today
Living the life I am
Please let me say this,

Why I will never know,
Never know why you choose to help me
Choose to let me close
When I needed someone,
Yes, I will never know why

Yet now I feel I don’t have to know
Why you did what you did
And why you said what you said
But thank you from the bottom of my heart,
And I am truly grateful for all that
You have done for me
You are totally amazing
I’m glad you are who you are.
You changed my life. 
 
Today I came here to ask you something God,
Why me? Why does he love me? I’m nothing special
I’m not pretty or sexy or that talented, I’m no A grade
Student so why me? Please answer me, I need to know.
I think that he loves me but why I don’t know
I can’t see in me what he does so why me?

He could have anyone, he’s smart, funny and drop dead gorgeous
Yet he chooses me. He could have the head cheerleader,
The teachers daughter, anyone so why me?

Today I wish to find out the answer to my question,
I wish to know why me? I am lost, confused and a bit
Worried, what if he is playing me? What if the love he
Is showing me is something he doesn’t really feel? I
Just want to know why he choose me, everyone is jealous but
I can’t see in me what he does so why me?

He could have anyone, he’s smart, funny and drop dead gorgeous
Yet he chooses me. He could have the head cheerleader,
The teachers daughter, anyone so why me?

Today I know I should confront him, but I am just too
Scared, I love him and am afraid of losing him because I
Can’t help but doubt him. Why me? Why did he
Fall for me? I know I should trust him yet it’s
All too good to be real, I’m not anything special
I can’t see in me what he does so why me?

He could have anyone, he’s smart, funny and drop dead gorgeous
Yet he chooses me. He could have the head cheerleader,
The teachers daughter, anyone so why me?

He could have anyone, he’s smart, funny and drop dead gorgeous
Yet he chooses me. He could have the head cheerleader,
The teachers daughter, anyone so why me?

Please God tell me, why me? Why me? I said why me?
 
You help me find my way
Through every day
With a light shinning so bright
It lights up even the darkest night,
Though I didn’t know where I was going,
I had never taken this road before, something
Told me this was right and with you beside me
Telling me to take the next step, and to see
I could do this, and I would survive,
And I would find a way to live
My life again and forget the horror
Of the past, you were my teacher,
You taught me how to live my life again
You showed me how to beat this pain

Before you came
I was so lost,
Alone and scared,
Not knowing where
I was going,
Constantly running
From those I though
Would hurt me
And then one day
I ran into
Your open arms
You walked with me

I always knew if I was sad,
You would be there, and never got mad
At me no matter how horrid I was to you
And you really are so totally true,
To those you care for, you always walked with me
And helped, tried to make me see
What you do, I am so pleased have walked with you,
I now I see what you always knew,
Everyone is special, you taught me to see that,
And even when you were busy you had time for a chat,
You made me smile, made me laugh, made me believe,
And though you didn’t understand, you let me grieve,
You were always there on the good days and the bad ones,
My love and respect for you ever deepens,

Before you came
I was so lost,
Alone and scared,
Not knowing where
I was going,
Constantly running
From those I though
Would hurt me
And then one day
I ran into
Your open arms
You walked with me.
