Melissa Writes a Song

This beautiful, original song was written and performed for me on my birthday by my incredibly talented 15-year old daughter Melissa. I nearly flooded the house with my tears. Listen and you'll understand why!

Listen to the song here!

I have no idea how to write a song

Should it be this short, can it be that long

I wish all the words would come pouring out

but it's not that easy...

I don't even know where to start

Can I just say that you are my best friend

The one who's there for me when on one else is

Keeping me calm with your soothing voice

You make my problems seem not as big as they once were before

You are my hero disguised as someone helping me find my way in life

No words can say just how much I love you

We may sometimes fight but that's ok

Cause that's how teens and moms will act now a days

I know you always have my back

It seems like time moves way too fast

When we spend moments together I just want it to last

Can I just say that you are my best friend

The one who's there for me when on one else is

Keeping me calm with your soothing voice

You make my problems seem not as big as they once were before

You are my hero disguised as someone helping me find my way in life

No words can say just how much I love you

But when I go away in four year's time
I know you'll miss me

I really can't imagine a life without you
But hey don't you worry, it will be alright
Cause you'll be hiding in my dorm room at night

Can I just say that you are my best friend

The one who's there for me when on one else is

Keeping me calm with your soothing voice

You make my problems seem not as big as they once were before

You are my hero disguised as someone helping me find my way in life

No words can say just how much I love you
