For Sammie and Jayne Leigh xx

With great thanks to Ronan Keating for writing this song, it is used without permission and I don't make any money from it.

I looked at Kerry as she took centre stage again;

"Not many people know this but Claire is a performer, a singer to be precise…."

"Don't you dare Kerry" I threatened

"About seven years ago, Claire wrote a song, it was written for her mum when she was seriously ill only it was never needed. There was only ever one demo tape ever made of it and luckily I managed to track it down, all these years and its never been shown to anyone until today. Claire will you do us the great honour of performing it for us?" Kerry ignored my threat and carried on

"This hasn't seen the light of day for nearly eight years, I can't believe you've dug this up" I sighed before continuing "I wrote this for my mum, she was so seriously ill, she couldn't look after herself. Doctors had warned us that the end was drawing near and so I wrote this, it's called 'This Is Your Song' and it's dedicated to my wonderful mum" I smiled

The music began and I took the microphone off the stand

'Live your life to the full
With a lifetime of smiles
Made us know right from wrong
Always knowing a lie

You made us to be tough
But never too rough
Rise above what you said
Never easily lead

And one day we'll all sing along
'Cause this is your song
I wrote it for you
It won't take all day
just a minute or two

You were a friend
Walk with you to the end
And one day we'll all sing along
'Cause this is your song

So I'll try and go on
Loving all that we know
Through the hardest of times
you put on a show

You made us stand tall
When all around us would fall
Even when you were alone
You believed you could fly

And one day we'll all sing along
'Cause this is your song
I wrote it for you
It won't take all day
Just a minute or two

You were a friend
Walk with you to the end
And one day we'll all sing along
'Cause this is your song

And one day we'll all sing along
'Cause this is your song
We wrote it for you
It'll take all our lives
Just to help us get through

You were a friend
Walk with you to the end
And one day we'll all sing along
'Cause this is your song'

I hung the microphone back up and looked out at the crowd, I could see my dad with his arms around my mum, Kerry was stood with Mickey and John was stood directly in front of me smiling like a cheshire cat.

"Are you happy now Kerry?" I said stepping down into the waiting arms of John.

"You have the most beautiful voice and that was a beautiful song" John whispered into my ear

"Okay, nothing can follow that voice, but it's time for the first dance"

Right, I'm now lost for ideas and have hit another writers block, I need inspiration, please leave ideas in your reviews, thanx.

Luv ya all xxxxx
