Lee
music and lyrics by Kenneth-Michael Veltz
partying on the 5th of may
bouncin' - rollin' - taking a stroll
i felt the need to stretch out that day
dryer's tumblin' - somethings comin'
hearing voices through the window screen
lots of laughing - it's time for packing
so i pushed to stop the bar-be-que
now we better get moving - i know my day is due
i'm so happy - just to be - positive lee
moved the party to the avenue
horns a honkin' - not much talkin'
but i could feel the love beneath a half lit moon
over the bridges - avoiding the ditches
now i'm soaring all the way to the 10th floor
i'm rounding midnight - but at the door
i'm so happy - just to be - positive lee
the water slide - i'm next in line
dangerous very - exciting and scary
but i know the love that made this mine
right here beside me - ready to guide me
through my first of many unknown doors
i'm keepin' my thumbs up - i'm ready to soar
angels flying high - light and wonder fills my eyes
i'm so happy just to be - positive lee
