Today there is sadness

Today there is sadness

I'm often quite happy

I feel quite alive

My friends and my family, my faith are my life

It's natural to laugh and be child like and fun

I choose to see joy through the life of my son

But

Today there is sadness

Today there is loss

Today I feel weighed down and tired out and cross

Today there are burdens 

Today will be long

Today there is sadness

Today she is gone
