I'm not one to post song lyrics alot...

But this one struck me today-yes, it is a Michael Jackson song..but it has a great message..I can picture Jesus singing this to us in a way, on certain parts. Hmm. Great song regardless! :)

Another day has gone
I'm still all alone
How could this be
You're not here with me
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go
And leave my world so cold

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

But you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
But you are not alone

'Lone, 'lone
Why, 'lone

Just the other night
I thought I heard you cry
Asking me to come
And hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers
Your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand
Then forever can begin
Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
For you are not alone

Whisper three words and I'll come runnin'
And girl you know that I'll be there
I'll be there

You are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay

For you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart

For you are not alone...

This performance was captured. I feel fortunate to have grown up listening to his music..I remember me and my cousins and friends would record on the VCR all his videos and mimic (try!) the choreography, and have a big show for our parents. My biggest memory though was watching "Thriller" every Halloween before trick or treating with my cousins. I'm not a huge fan of Britany Spears (ok, maybe a little), but I felt this performance was kind of like "passing on the torch" to the younger generation. You could tell he was still giving it his all, when I'm sure he wasn't feeling 100%..you could still see the fire.
