Kelsey’s Song by Alita Fahey & Makirum
Verse 1
There’s a story behind the mirror
A reflection that will last
Touched by fondest feelings
Kissed with memories past
A little fellow dressed in grey
In a satin pink bow tie
Staring in the mirror
While those around him cried
Chorus
Then Ewan kissed the mirror
And walked towards the door
He saw the others weeping and said
‘Don’t you cry no more…
See Kelsey paints the rainbows
She’s up there in the sky
A tiny girl with wings to fly
So there’s no need to cry
See Kelsey paints the rainbows
She’s the brightest star
A tiny little sister
That didn’t come as far
As me
Verse 2
The kiss stayed on the mirror
A year travelled by
It was her anniversary
And everybody cried
The little boy was older now
No longer three but four
His sister painted rainbows
Of this he seemed quite sure
Bridge
‘And as rainbows are so beautiful
Why is everyone so sad?
I’ve seen her in the mirror
And she wants you to be glad’
Chorus
Then Ewan kissed the mirror
And walked towards the door
He saw the others weeping and said
‘Don’t you cry no more…..
See Kelsey paints the rainbows
She’s up there in the sky
A tiny child with wings to fly
So there’s no need to cry
See Kelsey paints the rainbows
‘She’s the brightest star
A tiny little sister
That didn’t come as far
As me’
CODA
She’s never forgotten
Kelsey paints the rainbow (x4)
