Written for my Aunt... (song) How Do I Ask 1st Verse Let me take you by the hand And, tell you where I've been I lived our forever Hung onto yesterday Hmmm, I cried out in the pain... Please rise me above, Oh God, she is loved For her, let me sail, not drown, in the rain... 2nd Verse Let me take you by the heart Walk us down our road When we were together Each other we'd linger Oh, gave into her holding me.... Let me fill her mind, Oh God, of the sacred kind Of late night calls and I love you, Oh, so, endlessly... Chorus Just one more lifetime One more day Oh, how do I ask you If she can stay? Just more lifetime One more night Oh, how do I ask you To spare a life? ( On my knees tonight) 3rd Verse Let me take you from the storm In a shelter all my own I'm a breath away in prayer Oh, do you remember? Ooh, How you and I painted the sky Now, it's blue over blue, Oh God, She's image of you As the mountains, they moved before my eyes... Chorus Again Just one more lifetime One more day Oh, how do I ask you If she can stay? Just one more lifetime One more night Oh, how do I ask you To spare a life? ( I'm on my knees tonight ) Bridge Oh, will you tell me that wherever you go You'll always sit at my edge of bed... And, it's late night dreams on, on my pillow.... Just one more lifetime One more day. Saundra Sauni:) |

![]() (angel compassion hugs) Oh Saundra, this made me cry reading and has really choked me up just envisioning the grieving heart of a yearning parent! (wipes tear) My deepest thoughts, prayers and heart hugs are with you or whoever is enduring this precious loss, as this is an emotional experience I believe we all can relate to on certain levels! God Bless You, dearest friend, I'm so happy to read your wonderful words again, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Saundra, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other" |

Talk about a smile on my face seeing your name here tonight. Poignant lyrics, but warm wonderful heartfelt words. So how are you and your children, by the way? It's been an eternity since we chatted. ![]() |
