about

The local Relay For Life program (American Cancer Society signature fundraiser) was interested in having a special song just for their annual "wish lantern" ceremony that took place as it grew dark. I needed a song for a songwriters course I was taking online and had asked one of my grand-nephews to give me a song title. He came up with "Sky Lanterns" and explained he was thinking about the wish lantern ceremony. This is the song I wrote for my assignment AND for the Relay For Life event.

lyrics

Originally written for the "wish lantern" ceremony at the American Cancer Society's Relay For Life event.
lyrics
VERSE 1
Time to light the fire, get ready to fly
Prepare to burn and light up the sky
Memories fill the breeze
Enchantment riding high

CHORUS 1
Sky Lanterns
Glowing as they scatter
Drifting through the sky

VERSE 2
Twinkling lights rise up, they float afar
And overhead they shine like stars
Memories on the breeze
Lanterns floating by

CHORUS 2
Sky Lanterns
Glowing as they scatter
Floating through the sky

BRIDGE
We stand and watch our mem'ries as they float away
Our hopes and sorrows shared and lifted today
Our mem'ries dance with ease, and set our spirits free
And we see

CHORUS 3
Sky Lanterns
Glowing as they scatter
Dancing through the sky

Dancing through the sky
