Birthday Boy
A year ago today the 24th of May
Tiny newborn fingers playing air guitar
It’s been a crazy year let us disregard the tears
We’re thankful you are who you are
You have many names and we call you James
And sometimes baby bear
And you seem to know that we’ll help you grow
But most of all we’re going to teach you how to care
Your first year came and went the time was well spent
You cried a little laughed a lot and so did we
Now work your way to two we’ll all be there with you
And then we’ll watch you get to three
You have many names and we call you James
And sometimes baby bear
And you seem to know that we’ll help you grow
But most of all we’re going to teach you how to care
solo
You have many names and we call you James
And sometimes baby bear
And you seem to know that we’ll help you grow
And we’ll teach you how to care
If you grow up fast make the memories last
You will know we all were there
To protect and guide help you hit your stride
And understand the lessons that we all have shared
It’s been a year today
The 24th of May
Happy birthday, birthday boy

A Good Time To Cry
What has happened to all our dreams
Have we simply run out of steam, to cope
Will we once again learn to care
Is our future filled with despair, or hope
Just look around it’s a good time to cry
Where is all the love in our hearts
Will we let our world fall apart, again
If we have to face our worst fears
Will we still remember all the best years, and then
Look around it’s a good time to cry
Will we ever know what went wrong
Will we show who was strong
And where’s the key who’s to blame
Oh can’t we see we’re all the same
So look around it’s a good time to cry
Will we ever look back and say
We must never let the past fade away, oh no
If freedom is the life that we seek
The truth is what we all need to speak, and show
So look around it’s a good time to cry
Be unbound and you’ll know how to fly
Make a sound let it out in a sigh
Kiss the ground look up at the blue sky
Reach inside and continue to try
Please confide you can always ask why
Trust your guide think and open your eyes
No don’t hide now’s the right time to cry
