What If?

What if that day 10 years ago,
was only just a dream?
And all the sorrow that we shed
was just a mistake it seems.

What if you were really here
at your daughter’s side?
To walk her down the aisle
The day she became a bride.

And what if you were here
To guide your only son,
To give him all your wisdom
As a young man he’s become.

What if you were really here
And I could feel your warm embrace?
Would it take away the loneliness,
Which my heart it has incased?

What if you had been here
To hold us up in our defeats?
And what if you’d of been here
To cheer at each hurdle we would meet?

And what if you were here,
To take away our pain?
Would we all be different?
Or maybe just a bit more sane?

What if you had not left us,
In such a hurried haste?
Would you know the impact
Upon our hearts you placed?

What if we’d of had the chance
To have you just one more day?
What is it that our hearts,
To you… would want to say?

Please my love don’t leave me
Stay and grow old with me tomorrow,
Daddy we love you, please don’t go
How will we rise above the sorrow?

If I Could

If I could pick a star
Just for you and me.
I’d fly upon…
a bluebirds wing
for just a chance to see.

If I could predict the future
Just for you and me,
I’d look within
a crystal ball
and see a dream of we.

If I could write a story
Just for you and me.
I’d pave a
Road to happiness
With words you’d want to read.

If I could move the oceans
Just for you and me,
I’d build a boat
And set sail
And my heart to you I’d bring.

If I could paint a rainbow
Just for you and me.
I’d paint it high…
Up in the sky
And meet you in the middle.

If I could…
for you and me…

I would.

Manhunt

I’m geared up and ready for the hunt of my life,
With the experience needed to
Trap this man beast with very little strife.

I put on my makeup, my heals, and my sheers,
I’m locked and I’m loaded
For the hunt for this “man beast” I fear.

I’m armed and I’m dangerous with my favorite perfume,
So you better watch out man beast,
When I walk in the room!

I’ve got all the know-how and the skill
To hunt down this man beast
And go in for the kill!

It’s awful out there; it’s not for the faint-hearted
Someone has to do it,
I better get started!

Don’t go! It’s dangerous! They all say,
Stay home where it's safe and warm
Please, if you may.

Pffftt, I’ll not hear it, I’ve got it all mapped
This beast they call man
Can surely be trapped!

I head for the car with all of my gear
Look out man beast!
It’s me you should fear!

I rev up the engine, and never look back
Man beast beware!
I’ll cut you no slack!
