Why
This is the path I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread
These are the tears...
The tears we shed
This is the fear

These are the contents of my head
And these are the years that we have spent
And this is what they represent
And this is how I feel

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

Otukaikino Reserve ,Christchurch .Hasn,t been open since Sept earthquake so i dont know what it is like now but it was a very nice area
To those silent sentinels,
the guardians of the night,
who insured our peaceful homes
and sheltered our children from fright.
We give our thanks and praise
for the sacrifice they bore,
and pledge always to remember
their gift of service in war.
