...With Grace [AIU Spring Festival]

I've always wondered who I'd be, if I hadn't met you So many times your lessons helped to pull me through But now, I have to continue on, without you there It rips me up, because we were always quite the pair I wanted to slap you, for not telling me before Our time was growing short, but still, I wanted more The scales of Life and Death never measure true. If they did, I'd have died alongside you "I remember all the times I cried, my head in your lap....You always knew what to do, whether is was a calm voice or a hard slap." I learned to express myself....With Grace I found my lifelong calling....With Grace When my time comes, When I'm laid down Don't cry for me For I can be found Walking eternal forests....With Grace Watching you waste away before my eyes Telling me it'd be alright, just hopeful lies I tried to smile, though my heart was yearning The ice in my chest so cold it was burning I always knew that one day we'd have to part ways You taught me that while the body dies, the spirit stays I hope that you're here now, placing kisses on my hair Or walking Tir na nOg, calmly waiting for me there I learned to express myself....With Grace I found my lifelong calling....With Grace When my time comes, When I'm laid down Don't cry for me For I can be found Walking eternal forests....With Grace "Few are as fortunate as I.....I knew you....that was rare and beautiful."
