Cruising Cooper

You were only 
a beautiful dream -
although at the time
you truly seemed...

So perfect
life was new -
and then unfortunately
it was true...

You headed to heaven
you died so young -
we were alive
and had barely begun...

Living what would
be your life -
I wonder if I could
have been your wife...

I doubt it 
but we will never see -
because our love
will never be...

We skinny dipped
enjoying your mansion -
back in the day
it was such an expansion...

rest easy my friend
I do not know -
why the good ones
have to go.


Rings

Maybe he's right
I'm never satisfied -
Maybe when I said I do
I actually lied...

So why am I still
standing by his side -
why haven't I 
ran away to hide...

I think it's because
I love him from my heart -
and I never want
that to fall apart...

I'm not perfect
and never have been -
but I choose to live my life
loving only him.

Morning Mist

Let it rain
please let it rain -
let it rain down
on this ground...

It may not be 
my forever home -
but it's the home
I've found...

I traveled long
I traveled wide -
with my favorite people
by my side...

Now that I am
finally here -
I can not help
but to abide...

with the animals
and towering palms -
with the many flowers
that keep me calm...

Please let it rain
and feed this earth -
so that it thrives long
after I'm gone.
