MY LIFE'S NOT STOPPING HERE
I took a walk this morning
through the tiny little village
I spoke with Velda, Nan, Aletha,
All such friendly people
and realized once again
that he is not my universe.
I find that when I'm far from him
in person or in thought,
that life holds more meaning for me
There's no need to be distraught.
There are many people that I love
and I know that they love me.
And even if there weren't
there are the blue skies and the trees
to remind me
that my God has my life held in His hands
and with his help and guidance
I've a mind to make my plans.
Perhaps this man does love me
but I don't think he does
but he's only one man in this world
It's not by him I'll measure
There are far too many
other friends and family that I treasure.
Now I'm not young but I'm not old
My life's not stopping here.
My future still awaits me
Maybe there and maybe here.
Maybe with him or without him,
I have many years to live
And if not to him, then others,
my love I'll surely give.
