We ran across an old movie yesterday…one we hadn’t seen in years
And like all our favorite movies…it offered joy, laughter and tears.
It’s about how life’s an awfully great adventure…It’s about reaching for the sky.
It’s about never growing up..and about a young boy who can fly.
It’s a movie about believing…in what you say and do…
because if you believe hard enough…your wishes will come true.
But in real life we know…wishing doesn't make every dream come true
there’s cancer, Alzheimer's and ALS…just to name a few.
I’ve lost friends and family to all of them…and though I hoped for them to stay…
No matter how I wished and prayed and dreamed…they all died anyway,
But the movie reminds us to never stop believing…in whatever we say and do
Because we never know the moment…when some dream will come true.
There’s a bounty of dreams out there…that we can take under our wing…
For even if we cannot learn to fly…we can still learn how to sing.
That some wishes do come true and some do not…is often difficult to understand…
perhaps the meeting of the two…can be found…in Neverland
