Sunshine, music and love

Where in the world did the bluebirds fly?
Did they, like your tears, fall upon the floor,
Only to be absorbed by the earth?

Where, oh where, did the sunshine go?
I waited for so long through the rain.
Under umbrellas, I was still,
As I was under you so many nights
My ozone layer to this earth,
keeping everything harmful out.

Why did the music go silent?
In those sweet and soulful,
Sometimes complex,
Sometimes simple melodies,
I found harmonies that resonated
With the souls of so many who felt alone.

Where could the love have gone?
Did it step out the door with you?
I think it did but it wasn't lost.
Out there, it changed
And turned
Into something
Or someone else.

But what I do know
Is now that the bluebirds have fallen;
The sunshine went away;
The music died down,
The one thing left to do
Is find that lost love.

I need to find that love because
I know that it's the only thing
That will bring the bluebirds to fly,
The sun to glow again and
The music to start singing
Within my soul once more.

Somewhere along the way

Somewhere again along the way
There lies hope in the creation of something
That leaps and travels beyond every boundary.

Somewhere along the way,
I might create this and
Somewhere along the way
An impact would be made.

I just hope that somewhere along this way
I don't get lost then
Some time at the end
I'll leave this earth better when I fade.
