Not empty

I opened my diary to write in the next hospital appointment, and noticed the unusually empty days stretching far ahead. Then I saw that my life is not as empty as that; tucked into the cover was this little card the kids gave me last year when I was feeling low. Not empty at all.


Thank you for the days, those endless days
Those sacred days you gave me
I'm thinking of the days
I won't forget a single day believe me

I bless the light, I bless the light
That lights on you believe me
And though you're gone
You're with me every single day believe me

Days I remember all my life
Days when you can't see wrong from right
You took my life
But then I knew that very soon you'd leave me
But it's alright
Now I'm not frightened of this world believe me

I wish today could be tomorrow
The night is long it just brings sorrow, let it wait, Oh

Thank you for the days, those endless days
Those sacred days you gave me
I'm thinking of the days
I won't forget a single day believe me

Days I remember all my life
Days when you can't see wrong from right
You took my life
But then I knew that very soon you'd leave me
But it's alright
Now I'm not frightened of this world believe me

Day-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ays

Thank you for the days, those endless days
Those sacred days you gave me
I'm thinking of the days
I won't forget a single day believe me

I bless the light, I bless the light
That shines on you believe me
And though you're gone
You're with me every single day believe me

Day-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ays
