BEGIN AGAIN


It is like some one died

Some one who supports the foundation

Of who you are

Now they're gone, you must go on

 

Another year older

Starting all over

Must I go through the pain again?

 

It's like a lost child

Could only imagine

What is going through the mother's mind?

The pain of not knowing

 

You want to go out and search, you want to look

You've done all you could, but it dose no good

You trace you steps

But you for get were you last been

 

How do you begin again
