A Song for You

She wakes up in the morning
tosses and turns while she rubs her eyes
The sun is shining on her face
through the window pane so bright
There’s no telling what this day will bring
but she awakes with a smile in the presence of her King
And she sings…
“I wanna sing a song for you
I wanna make every line a melody so true
I wanna sing a song for you
cuz you gave me this voice and singing is what I do
oh, ohhhh, a song for you”
With a few steps out of bed she pours a cup of ‘Joe
and gets herself dressed from head to toe
With one last glance in the mirror she heads out the door
“here we go,” she says with a smile and on her way she goes
She stares up at the pale blue sky
and whispers, “if you’re listening I hope this one makes you smile,”
“I wanna sing a song for you
I wanna make every line a melody so true
I wanna sing a song for you
cuz you gave me this voice and singing is what I do
oh, ohhhh, a song for you”
She never would have guessed it that this very day
would be the last one of this earth before her heart gave way
A sudden accident and in an instant she was lifeless and cold
but when she opened her eyes again, her King, she could behold.
And she smiled said…
I wanna sing a song for you
I wanna make every line a melody so true
I wanna sing a song for you
cuz you gave me this voice and singing is what I do
oh, ohhhh, a song for you
