May You Be loved

MAY THE SUN SHINE DOWN UPON YOU
MAY THE WORLD TAKE NOTHING FROM YOU
MAY THE SKIES BE BLUE WHEREVER YOU MAY GO
MAY YOUR FRIENDS BE EVERLASTING
AND IF YOU MOURN AT SOMEONE'S PASSING
MAY YOU CELEBRATE THE LOVE THAT YOU HAD KNOWN
MAY YOUR WEALTH BE MEASURED
IN THE LOVE YOU GIVE TO THOSE IN NEED
AND THE THINGS YOU LEARN
BE MORE THAN FROM SOME BOOKS
YOU CHOSE TO READ
 
 
CHORUS
COS LOVE'S NEVER ENDING
(IT'S THE SUN ON A FAR HORIZON)
LOVE'S A BEGINNING
(LIKE THE DAWN OF A NEW DAY RISING)
LOVE IS A REASON
(TO FIND THE FAITH WHEN YOU HAVEN'T GOT A PRAYER)
LOVE IS ANSWER
(A RAY OF HOPE IN YOUR DARKEST HOUR)
LOVE IS A QUESTION
(TO HEAL THE PAIN LET YOU FEEL THE POWER)
IT'S WHAT YOU DREAM ABOUT
AND WHAT YOUR RUNNING FROM
MAY YOU BE LOVED
 
 
MAY YOU LIVE TO SEE YOUR CHILDREN
AND THE DREAMS THAT THEY ARE BUILDING
WATCH THE SEEDS YOU PLANTED
IN THEIR THOUGHTS STILL GROW
LET THE ECHOES OF THEIR LAUGHTER
STAY WITH YOU IN THE HEREAFTER
COS I KNOW YOU TAKE IT WITH YOU WHEN YOU GO
MAY YOUR MIND ALWAYS BE OPEN
TO ANOTHER'S POINT OF VIEW
MAY YOU NEVER GIVE UP HOPE
IN ALL THE THINGS YOU PLAN TO DO
 
 
REPEAT CHORUS
 
 
SOMEDAY WHEN YOU ARE MUCH OLDER
I HOPE YOU LOOK INTO THE FACE
OF A CHILD WITH EYES JUST LIKE MINE
 
 
REPEAT CHORUS
 
MAY YOU BE LOVED X 2
 
IT'S THE SUN ON A FAR HORIZON
