ONCE UPON A TIME
LONG AGO
SET INTO RHYME
OUT BY THE SHORE
I RISE AND SEE THE DOOR
LIKE VOICES IN THE WIND
I HEAR VOICES
I SEE FACES
I SEE PURPLE, YELLOW AND BLUE
YOU LOVE ME AND I LOVE YOU
I SEE GRANDMA AND GRANDPA TOO
I AM STANDING IN THE THRESHOLD
LOOKING THROUGH THE WINDOW WATCHING THE HAPPY FACES
THERE IS MOM, DAD, CHAD, KELSEY POOH AND KENDALL JACKSON CHARDONNAY
LITTLE BURGER BROTHER JAXSON
MY HEAD IS STARTING TO SPIN
AS PAST MEMORIES START TO KICK IN
THE FLOWERS IN THE VASE ARE WILTED ON ONE SIDE
THIS HOUSE WAS BORN TO GROW AND DIE
DROPPING ALL SENSE OF REASON
THIS IS TREASON
FOR SLEEP LONG AWAITED
BLESSED PEACE NOW HAS COME
LET FREE YOUR SILENT SONG
YOUR DREAM JUST BEGUN
GET THE FIRE AS THE FLAME IT BURNS
GET THE WIND AS IT SLOWLY TURNS
GET THE SKY
SEE GOD’S CREATIONS FLY BY
I HAVE THE POWER OF LOVE
IT FITS LIKE A WELL-TAILORED GLOVE
HEAVEN OPENED THE DOOR
YOU LEFT WAY TO SOON
SHAME, SHAME ON THE MOON
OH KYLIE, KYLIE
OH WYLIE KYLIE
WE NEED TO TALK
BRING THE BLACKBOARD
I GOT THE CHALK
SET FORTH AND HEAD NORTH
WITH GRANDMA, WITH GRANDPA
A WARM SUMMER BREEZE ON THE OCEAN SHORE
WHERE WORRIES WILL BE NO MORE
YOUR COURSE HEADS FOR A UNIVERSE SEASON
THE SUN, THE MOON, THE STARS, THE REASON
ANOTHER SHOUT
ANOTHER CRY
WE LOVE YOU
YOU KNOW WHY
SWEET MEMORIES CARRY ON
WE DREAM AS ONE
LOVE IS IN OUR HEARTS
LOVE AND WE SHALL NEVER FALL APART
KYLIE, I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THIS POEM
IT’S FROM UNCLE BOBBY
YOU KNOW ‘EM
WE LOVE YOU, SHERRY LOVES YOU
AND THAT’S THE POWER OF LOVE
