Hi I'm Noel and I write poetry, ballads, and lyrics. The ballards here are just a few of many
Lyrics
Dear Mum,
By Noel Downs Copyright 8 February 2003
Dear Mum I pray this letter,
Is one you’ve been waiting for,
It’s been so long since I written,
And too long since I’ve called!
Did I ever say how much I love you?
Or how much you really mean to me?
I wished I’d made you prouder,
But some things can never be.
You were right age brings wisdom,
You were right about true friends.
I know I should have listened,
I thought I knew it all back then.
I know why you were upset,
When I thought I was acting cool,
I sorry I called you foolish,
When it was me who was the fool.
I didn’t deserve forgiveness,
But you forgave me anyway.
I was never the most lovable,
But you loved me all the same!
I’m sorry for the embarrassment,
I didn’t mean to cause you pain.
I know you taught me better,
That was why I ran away.
Your teaching wasn’t wasted.
I can survive now on my own.
Thank you for your patience,
P.S. Mum I’m coming home!
