When I feel the cold of Winter
and this cloak of sadness
I come running back to You
Safe and secure, warmth
Even if only in my mind! 

Seems like yesterday
Time goes by so fast
If you have a little one
Let all the other stuff go
Sometimes we waste time
on things that don’t matter
What matters is their world
Till one day they grow
Spread their wings
and you sit like me
Smiling
Cheering
always tearing
and
Cherishing every little memory
every sweet moment
every little hand print
They leave upon your heart
Seems like yesterday
because it was
time goes by so fast
Let all the other stuff go
focus on the sweet gifts
you’ve been given
in your child

Let me take you down
the backroads of my mind
All that remains are sweet memories
now covered by grace
I re-framed the painful ones to rest I laid
All the sadness, bitterness, pain
Now the backroads aren’t so scary
No longer a place I dare not go
Let me take you down
the backroads of my mind

It’s a sweet blessed trip! Shall we go?
