Family Portrait

Folder: 
2005

so good to see you again, feels like it's been forever

I love it when we are all here and we're all together

you all have a place in my heart and nothing can compare

to the feelings I get when all of you are all there

and it seems like the time it goes by so fast

I wish that we had more time to make it last

cause when I think about seeing you I get so happy

and when I am around you I feel alive, I feel like me



chorus

and I want to capture all these times we share

every smile, every laugh, together without a care

and I never want to forget every moment here

talking and laughing and watching the deer

and I feel so close to everyone, I feel like I belong

and it is so beautiful like a family portrait, like a song



you haven't changed that much though it's been a while

and all of this time I have been trying to find my smile

but you all show me what it's like to be loved, like a family

and now I am away from my interminable days and I can breathe

and I look forward to seeing everyone's face again

cause you are more than my family you are all a friend

so I prepose a toast to a family reunited after all these years

let's drink to this cause we are all the family of deers

chorus



goodbye is always the saddest part

and there is an emptiness in my heart

with hugs and kisses we're on our way

until we meet again another day

chorus

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This weekend I went to my Uncle George's house in Pennsylvania and had a great time.  I got to see my Uncle George and Aunt Deloris again along with my Aunt Candy and uncle John whom I haven't seen in about 4 years, I love them all.
