Shoes


Red shoes 

sparkle shoes

Shoes that bring me home

 

Shoes that click when I walk

Shoes that echo

that show that I am present

and I am somebody

 

I follow the road of life with shoes

that lead me to my wishes

for a heart full of love

for a heart that can feel

for a a bravery that can save

for a bravery that can fill

for a brain that can ponder

for a brain that is bright

 

I am the lost girl

who wishes for shoes to bring me home

For those who need to be free

find the shoes that make you be

as light as a feather

as bright as a star

as happy as a child

a child with happiness that is an

everlasting sea

 

Find the shoes that make you feel

like you can walk on water

the shoes that help you enjoy the journey

that make the journey your reward

 

Find those dancing shoes

that dance through the rain

that dance through the sorrow

that dance through the pain

 

That is how you find your way

step by step

day by day
