This is a lyric from an Oleander song...
Hey, welcome to my page for Liz a year later. I wanted to put up some songs and just make a new page kinda thing. Nothing elaborate like the other one. I still think about Liz every single day. I still meet people all the time who knew her, or knew of her. I still miss her and wish more then anything that she could come back to me. Sometimes I hope it's just one big nightmare, and that she'll be coming back, like it was one of her jokes. No matter how mad I'd be at her, I'd be so happy. But those things don't happen and wishes like these don't come true. So, I am just going to continue to honor her memory, and remember everything she taught me. Enjoy the lyrics, and if you have a memory you'd like to share, drop me a line in my guestbook or email me. Love you always Liz!
Luv, LAuRa*
One Sweet Day
Lyrics: Mariah Carey, Michael McCray, Nathan Morris,
Wanya Morris, Shawn Stockman
Music: Mariah Carey, Walter Afanasieff

Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say
And now it's too late to hold you
'Cause you've flown away
So far away

Never had I imagined
Living without your smile
Feeling and knowing you hear me
It keeps me alive
Alive

And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day

Darling, I never showed you
Assumed you'd always be there
I took your presence for granted
But I always cared
And I miss the love we shared

And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day

Although the sun will never shine the same
I'll always look to a brighter day
Lord I know when I lay me down to sleep
You will always listen as I pray

And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day

And I know you're shining down on me from Heaven
Like so many friends we've lost along the way
And I know eventually we'll be together
One sweet day

Sorry I never told you
All I wanted to say



I Walk Alone
Lyrics: Oleander

i can’t take this anymore
and i’m almost pretty sure
i’ve been here before
i can’t take this any longer
i won’t heal until i’m stronger
strong enough to not be afraid
of what anybody thinks
of what anybody says
about the way
about the way i am
so i’ll wait until the day
when those feelings fade away
then i’ll make my break

i can’t take this anymore
and i’m almost pretty sure
i’ve been here before
i can’t take this any longer
i won’t heal until i’m stronger
strong enough to not be afraid
so i leave it up to you
yeah i leave it in your hands
respect your wishes and your demands
but if it was up to me
honey we’d already be back at home
and living out our dreams
living out

everybody and everything i’ve known
never taught me how to stand up on my own
had to learn it from the one who let me go
now i walk alone, yeah i walk alone, yeah
living blissfully

i guess you had to step away
to make me want to be
a bigger man, a bigger man than that
i need you by my side
as i take it all in stride
I put away, i put away my pride
oh i leave it up to you
yeah i leave it in your hands
respect your wishes and your demands
but if it was up to me
honey we’d already be back at home
and living out….

everybody and everything i’ve known
never taught me how to stand up on my own
had to learn it from the one who let me go
now i walk alone
yeah I walk alone, yeah
i walk alone
i walk alone
i walk alone
i walk alone
i walk, oh yeah



I'll Be Missing You
Lyrics: Puff Daddy and Sting

Every day I wake up
I hope I'm dreamin
I can't believe this shit
Can't believe you ain't here
It's hard to just keep goin
It's like I feel empty inside without you bein here
I would do anything, to bring you back
I'd give all this shit, shit the whole knot

Yeah... this right here (tell me why)
Goes out, to everyone, that has lost someone
That they truly loved

Life ain't always what it seem to be (uh-uh)
Words can't express what you mean to me
Even though you're gone, we still a team
Through your family, I'll fulfill your dream (that's right)
In the future, can't wait to see
If you open up the gates for me
Reminisce some time, the night they took my friend (uh-huh)
Try to black it out, but it plays again
When it's real, feelings hard to conceal
Can't imagine all the pain I feel
Give anything to hear half your breath (half your breath)
I know you still living your life, after death

Every step I take, every move I make
Every single day, every time I pray
I'll be missing you
Thinkin of the day, when you went away
What a life to take, what a bond to break
I'll be missing you

It's kinda hard with you not around (yeah)
Know you in heaven smilin down
Watchin us while we pray for you
Every day we pray for you
Til the day we meet again
In my heart is where I'll keep you friend
Memories give me the strength I need to proceed
Strength I need to believe
My thoughts I just can't define (can't define)
Wish I could turn back the hands of time
Us in the 6, shop for new clothes and kicks
You and me taking flicks
Makin hits, stages they receive you on
I still can't believe you're gone (can't believe you're gone)
Give anything to hear half your breath (half your breath)
I know you still living you're life, after death

Somebody tell me why
On that morning
When this life is over
I know
I'll see your face

Every night I pray, every step I take
Every move I make, every single day
Every night I pray, every step I take
Every day that passes
Every move I make, every single day
Is a day that I get
closer
To seeing you again
Every night I pray, every step I take
Every move I make, every single day
Cause we can't stop...
that's right
Every night I pray, every step I take
Every move I make, every single day


A Thousand Oceans
Lyrics: Tori Amos

*These tears I've cried, I've cried, a thousand oceans... and if it seems, I'm floating in the darkness, well I can't believe, that I would keep, keep you from flying, so I would cry, a thousand more, if that's what it takes, to sail you home...I'm aware what the rules are, but you know that I will run, you know that I will follow you, over silbury hill, through the solar field, you know that I will follow you... and if I find you, will you still remember playing at trains, or does this little blue ball, just fade away, over sillbury hill through the solar field, you know that I will follow you. I'm aware what the fules are, but you know that I will run, you know that I will follow you. These tears I've cried, I've cried, a thousand oceans, and if it seems, I'm floating, in the darkness, well i can't believe that I would keep, keep you from flying. So I will cry a thousand more, it's that's what it takes, to sail you home, sail you home, sail, sail you home.*

I'd also like to share a poem that I had put in the Literary Magazine at my school this year. It actually was the opener to it. I wrote this about Liz.
Weeping Rose
The petals falling off... of that perfect flower... that I can't touch... Walking closer you can smell its sweet essence... but you're still too far to touch... Perfect flowers are furthest away... cannot be picked... rain drops, as a petal falls off...innocence is gone from it... petal after petal... but the flower does not wither away... Purple Lavender shade of pale... One of a kind... hard to find... can't be reached...

This is a picture of the drawing for my tattoo designed by my good friend Gerg *luv ya heaps gerg!* that I have on my lower back in Liz's memory.
