Letter...from the lost days

A letter to my future self 

Am I still happy? I began 

Have I grown up pretty? 

Is Daddy still a good man? 

Am I still friends with Colleen? 

I'm sure that I'm still laughing 

Aren't I? Aren't I?  

Hey there to my future self 

If you forget how to smile 

I have this to tell you 

Remember it once in a while 

Ten years ago your past self 

Prayed for your happiness 

Please don't lose hope  

Oh, oh what a pair, me and you 

Put here to feel joy, not be blue 

Sad times and bad times

--see them through 

Soon we will know if it's for real

 What we both feel  

Though I can't know for sure 

how things worked out for us 

No matter how hard it gets, 

you have to realize 

We weren't put on this earth 

to suffer and cry 

We were made for being happy 

So be happy--for me, 

for you... Please...  

Oh, oh what a pair, me and you 

Put here to feel joy, not be blue 

Sad times and bad times

--see them through 

Soon we will know if it's for real 

What we both feel  

We were put here on this earth, 

put here to feel joy...
