A Part of Me
By Daniel Mansell - 7/24/98

The years they come, and the years they go,
And sometimes without warning.
They tend to take the best of times,
And replace them with mourning.

At times like these I wonder why
Our existence even stands.
Why everything I see ahead
Takes on a new demand.

But then I see in a whole new light,
As the hand of God comes near,
The only winner of this fight
Whispers in my ear

“After all that we’ve been through
We’ve been through it together.
In all the good times and the bad
Through all the raging weather.

I’ll make it up you soon will see
Your life will be brand new
‘Cause you’re just as much a part of me,
As I am of you.”
