Kathy's Song from ϕ by Mike Vitale

KATHY'S SONG
words and music by Michael Patrick Vitale

Baby steps
Your hands on my waist
Showering kisses on my tiny face
My clumsy dance
Living life's ballet
But your outstretched arms met me there half-way

Mum was magic
And her grand illusion
As sorceress of candy and its sweet diffusion
Lollies would vanish
And Cool Mints too
Appearing under pillows from across the room

When we were young
Zizi couldn't say
The suitable pronunciation of our names
Amanda was Memo
And Brett was Bert
And Mum would say she loved us all the much in the world

We took long drives
With no destination
While mum and dad would hold hands in adoration
The passing scenery and years rolled by so quick
We're kids in the backseat listening to music

Your wheel chair
I engage the brake
Showering kisses on my mother's face
This mysterious dance
Breaks my heart
But nothing in this Universe will ever keep us apart
