G C/G

I bless the day

D G

that you were born

The stars came up

and the heavens were torn

Apart to make way for your

Unlike many other thing

You had a purpose and a goal

This café is my island

And the city my sea

Out of all the things she does

From looking like a movie-star

To reading on the bus

Every day and night
