Question:Rest your hand upon your chest
and feel the steady beat within.
Know that I am here with you
and always will be 'till the end.

As we divided lovers live
Together in each other's heart
Know that at all ends we'll find
The traces to a better start.

Letting go of what is gone
Is part of letting life move on
As life slips by with every yawn
I look and see a graying dawn.

A leaf grows green upon a tree,
He sits and waits there eagerly.
He wavers in the passing breeze,
And all the world he wants to see.

One day the wind is blowing by
And he lets go of his old life.
He drifts along and says goodbye,
But slowly he begins to die.

His once green jacket fades to brown,
His dreams were not what he had found.
He once looked up, but now looks down,
His future now lies on the ground.
