Summer of '92 The summer of '92 My mom shipped me out She sent me to Paris But I had my doubt I knew I would hate it And want to come back But it was only for summer So I guess I could hack I knocked on her door She was my gram Met her once or twice This felt like a scam She took me in And showed me around Gave me a hug And then sat me down She told me how excited She was to see me She had a big grin Maybe Just maybe This will be okay A couple days went by And that's when we met The man of my dreams The man I must get We started spending some days Learning each other Learning our ways We fell in love That summer of '92 But all too soon I went back and we're through My life went on And I found someone new My life healed itself And I'm so much in love We decided to get married At the church of the dove And then in my womb I started to feel We made a baby Now this is real Years went by And it just got better And then one day in the mail I got a letter It was sent secret I don't know who wrote It said they were coming Wanted to see me they quote I tossed it away And thought oh well About this letter I will not dwell My life is perfect I need no more Whoever it is Go knock on another door One day I was baking And heard the bell I sent in my little one To open and tell She called out my name And said to come So I walked to the door Soon my heart starts to drum For there in my doorway Was the love of all loves And right away I knew There he stood That boy From the summer of '92 I walk in the clouds, I sing in the dust |

A work that strikes me and rings true. Reminds me of what I am going through. Again I am told that experiences I have I do not have them alone. Thankyou. |
