I used to walk into a room
And light it with my smile
A sunflower in full bloom
I seemed happy for a while
Slowly I watched my spirit fade
Once dancing free, but now afraid
Soon my soul will fly again
‘cause you can’t keep me down my friend
I do forgive, with all my heart
And look forward to a brand new start
I have so very much to give
I shall LOVE long as I live
