Yesterday Somehow Faded Away

Dainty soft pink slippers twirling high on toes few doors remained closed life an open book Tapping rhythm to a new song always found a safe place to belong never even had to look Feels like just yesterday somehow it just faded away Now I lay counting laughter and tear drops The whole world lay in my back yard the only attack needing to be dodged was by dragons Only things exist are what we created, only innocents of the wild imagination Exploring wonder land unplanned adventure in all kinds of weather Feels like just yesterday somehow it just faded away Now I lay counting laughter and tear drops The world seemed against me could not yank free from the chains oh the lies being feed to me Unknown sadness filled my eyes had no reason but no choice I had to cry Feels like just yesterday somehow it just faded away Now I lay counting laughter and tear drops Finally I belong; these memories blanket my soul uncovering things that were buried in that hole Overwhelmed with agape to the point of speechlessness anointed with blessing Feels like just yesterday somehow it just faded away Now I lay counting laughter and tear drops Oceans away miles apart I long for the peace coved in that place the ground covered in grace It is how I escape all the troubles of the world love falling like rain soaking everyone in its embrace Feels like just yesterday somehow it just faded away Now I lay counting laughter and tear drops Only pictures remind of the past, memories fade with rain cause we know they never truly last Pain consumes every inch of my being prying me away from the life that once was Learning to dance in the storm though I pray for life to return to the norm Feels like just yesterday somehow it just faded away Now I lay counting laughter and tear drops
