MEMORIAL FIREWORKS

So many nights I'd sit by my window
Waiting for someone to sing me his song
So many dreams I kept deep inside me
Alone in the dark but now you've come along

And you light up my life
You give me hope to carry on
You light up my days and fill my nights with song

Rollin' at sea, adrift on the water
Could it be finally I'm turnin' for home?
Finally a chance to say "Hey, I love you"
Never again to be all alone

'cause you, you light up my life
You give me hope to carry on
You light up my days and fill my nights with song

It can't be wrong
When it feels so right
'cause you.....you light up my life

JUST LIKE FIREWORKS IN THE SKY

....by Christine Ross in memory of Luke Ross

My mind is lit with memories
Just like fireworks in the sky,
Illuminating days of old
With explosions of goodbye.

The glimmer of your smiling face
Irradiates my consciousness,
While flashes deep within my brain
Ignite thoughts of happiness.

The luster of the distant past
Set my thoughts of you ablaze,
Reminiscing in the afterglow
Of burning pain I can't erase.

The beacon of your spirit
As it shines throughout the night,
Reminds me that the sunrise
Is just barely out of sight.

So I look up to the glowing flame
And see your brightness didn't die,
You light a spark in all of us
Just like fireworks in the sky.

FIREWORKS DON'T LAST FOREVER

....by Christine Ross in memory of Luke Ross

You're the one that made me sparkle,
Gave my eyes that happy glow.
But fireworks don't last forever.
It's something I've come to know.

Your death started an explosion
That blew my perfect world apart.
There's no more fireworks in my life
Because the light's gone from my heart.

You had your independence day
When your soul let freedom ring.
Your spirit soared with fireworks
When you left these earthly things.

I never walked in darkness,
Not until you left that day.
Fireworks don't last forever,
But for awhile you lit my way.

EXPLOSIONS

....by Christine Ross in memory of Luke Ross 1979 - 2001

Those fireworks that explode in the sky
on the forth of July...
to me are a representation
of the explosion within my heart
that occurred on that dreadful day that my son died.
These fireworks within my heart
do not end when the day comes to a close,
they continue to explode....
and will,
until the day that I see
the illumination of that sweet,
beautiful face of my son
in those eternal fireworks in the sky....
that I continually long for.

© 2004 - Christine Ross

I light up like a night on the Fourth of July.
I shine like the sun in the summer sky.
I glow like a field in the moon's full light.
These are the things that I do when you smile at me.

I hear the song birds melody.
I hear the softest rain on the streets.
I hear the wind pushing through the trees.
These are the things I hear when you speak to me.

~ Don Consentini

Saturday in the park
You'd think it was the fourth of July
Saturday in the park
You'd think it was the fourth of July
People talking, really smiling
A man playing guitar
Singing for us all
Will you help him change the world
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And Ive been waiting such a long time
For today

Funny days in the park
Every day's the fourth of July
Funny days in the park
Every day's the fourth of July
People reaching, people touching
A real celebration
Waiting for us all
If we want it, really want it
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And Ive been waiting such a long time
For the day

~ Chicago

Oh the smell of the smoke as we lay on the land
and the feeling of finding my heart in my hand
with the tiny tin voice of the radio band
singing love must stand
love forever and ever must stand

All on the Fourth of July
On the Fourth of July

~ James Taylor

So say goodbye it's Independence Day
It's Independence Day
All down the line
Just say goodbye it's Independence Day
It's Independence Day this time

~ Bruce Springsteen

Let freedom ring
Let the white dove sing
Let the whole world know that today
Is the day of a reckoning
Let the weak be strong
Let the right be wrong
Roll the stone away
Let the guilty pay
It's Independence Day

~ Martina McBride

Trembling
Starry eyed
As you put your hand in mine...

It was twilight
On the fourth of July
Sparkling colors were
Strewn across the sky
And we sat close enough
That we barely touched
While roman candles
Went soaring above us

~ Mariah Carey
