• I keep a smile on my face
    let no one know whats taken place
    "Where theres life theres hope" they say
    and that "flowers bloom along the way"
    but as i travel through this day
    i see no flowers, only clay
    only once i saw a rose
    but now shes gone and no one knows
    I wonder "could i take my life
    and see and end to pain and strife"
    but my life's no longer mine to take
    its giving already for Roses sake
    to wait my life, i said i would
    to end it early would be falsehood
    so as i wait and hope and pray
    ill travel on a bit each day
    and ill smile with each passing door
    waiting waiting evermore
