Forever Forever

Can forever resonate twice
within this gift of song
will the melody I leave behind
serenade you when I am gone

Can forever resonate twice
within the fabric of a father's care
will my two angels know someday
they are my rising sun, my smile, my sweet air

Can forever resonate twice
within a man who has been blessed
through a paternal pillar of inspiration
and a mother's pool of boundless love they lifted
my priceless gifts my wings from above

Can forever resonate twice
within a heart that has loved and lost
to have soared in the winds of a rainbow sky
and look on as the seasons passed me by
without a second thought
I would play Icarus again
if only to have now
what I had then

Forever, forever
this exponential experience of life
I cannot help but gasp in awe
at how a man can have forever twice
