Move On There were words that were said walk ahead, My Friend There's a light you'll see when you reach the end It's there you will find all your dreams will come true It will come from the love and the strength I gave you... Don't look back at me or your lonely years Take my hand and wipe away those tears My Friend, there is gold just waiting to be found You'll see the rainbow still shines from the blue sky down... As you're traveling that road and the nighttime calls Become the brightest star when evening falls And if you're still walking beyond as the new day appears Become the calmest morning you'll ever hear... My Friend, there are seasons we all must go through Take from me my courage and become what I made you There are leaves that will fall with the strong wind behind So, then become the prettiest leaf that you'll ever find... When the bitter cold and the rain moves in Become that beautiful view that winter brings And become the silence when you're facing that storm The bravery I taught you will keep you warm... Just ahead you will have what a spring day will hold There will be the sun and the flowers that will break through the cold And there will be waters that lie so perfectly still So become strong like the ground for the next rain to fill... Moving on in our lives is a road we all take My Friend, don't stop there's no time to wait You must not get lost in a world you can change Forever only comes once in a lifetime rain... Take from me my wisdom and the words I've said Move on there's hope and happiness ahead Become the person I always knew you could be Here's an armful of wishes going to you from me... Now, to you, My friend, I have walked many miles So that I could become real behind this smile And I've become the flowers and I've become the rain My Friend, I thank you for the greatest change... I have created a river filled with new life inside Because of you I have found a new meaning for life And as I stare so proudly at the water below There's my reflection of you that I'll never let go... Saun Sauni :) |
