So many strangers you could've known.
Their lives a little less bright, but they won't know the difference.
What a shame they won't know the love I know-
The smile that I know-
The kind eyes that I know.
They should be envious,
But I can't blame them-
They don't know better.
They didn't weather the storm,
To know the sunshine, like I did.
They're reveling in their ignorant bliss-
Joke's on them, for what they've missed.
But I don't fault them.
All the people you could've known-
Robbed of unconditional love-
But I'll try my best to show them.
It's a shame,
They know your name,
But not your warmth or your glow.
I'll try to grow-
And touch all of the people you could've known.
