On Top of the World -- Boys Like Girls



Look up, the stars are fading And I am still here waiting to see
you again  Be with you my friend When the moon is gone forever
I hope you're up there somewhere, I'll see you again
Be with you my friend  Cause all the roads they lead to where you
are And all the streetlights shine like they were stars
That's where you are

(**) Let's spend tonight on top of the world  And we can do
anything we can be anything I'll meet you tonight on top of the
world  As real as it seems  You're only in my dreams

Look out across the water Faces of lonely daughters and mothers
who care  But just can't be there  Swear that I will see you someday
I have to find a way To show you I care  Even if you're not there
So I'm following the road to where you are  
The streetlights they will guide me to the stars
That's where you are

(**)  

My heart is empty without you Sometimes you don't know what
to do  And I need you tonight  I'll fall asleep and it's alright
Close my eyes and I'll be by your side

"Even though this song subconsciously comes off as a love song (possibly because it was in its first generation), it is about losing my mother to cancer when I was 16, and giving her a promise to find her again somehow."


       A Mother And Child - Elizabeth Nourse


    
  

                          Your Mother is Always With You


A poem for those who have lost their mother. It's hard to take a poem
like this when your mourning, but it has a sense of comfort even through
the hard ache.
