Footprints in the Sand
Leona Lewis
You walked with me, Footprints in the sand,
And helped me understand where I'm going
You walked with me, When I was all alone,
With so much unknown along the way,
Then I heard you say,
I promise you, I'm always there,
When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair,
I'll carry you, when you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand
I see my life flash across the sky,
So many times have I been so afraid.
And just when I, I thought I lost my way,
You gave me strength to carry on,
That's when I heard you say,
I promise you, I'm always there,
When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair,
I'll carry you, when you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand
When I'm with you,
Well I know you've been there,
And I can feel you when you say,
I promise you, I'm always there,
When your heart is filled with sadness and despair,
I'll carry you, when you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand
When your heart is full of sadness and despair,
I'll carry you when you need a friend
You'll find my footprints in the sand.

Thank you grandma for always being there for me when I needed someone to confide to, when mum and dad refuse to listen, when I needed you most.
Thank you my friends, in particular, jasmine, shuting, yahui, yenloo and many others whom I've met, whom have hurt me sometimes but helped me grow, whom I shared my joy, tears and fears with... I thank you.
Thank you ma and pa. Even though you've neglected me so many times, but for survival in this monetary and cruel world, you have to work to bring us up and that's enough. Thank you for bringing me into this world as a healthy boy. I'm really sorry to have destroyed the perfect body of mine through all my stupid acts. I've let you down. If time could reverse, I would never never ever ever do those things again.
Thank you my bro, even though u always win in our quarrels, you allowed me to recognise my own weakness.
Thank you to all the passerbys in my life, you've lifted me up and brought me down. You've made life terrible for me. You've forced me to grow.
Thank you the heavens above for making me stick on to the belief that my guardian angel is somewhere out there, looking after me and allowing me to press on until now. I don't know how long I can hold on to this belief or when I might do things wrongly but till that day really comes, thank you for the numerous suicide attempts that always arent successful.
Thank you for Simon Cowell for writing this song, coming up with this album and having founded such a wonderful singer. It made me think a lot. It made me cry. It made me realise that there's people out there who cares even if they don't say it out.
Thank you for Leona Lewis who sung songs that touched my heart. The more I listened to it, the more meaningful it got, the more thoughts I had, the more touched I got and the more tears I cried.
Thank you, everyone in my life. If I left out anyone out there, it doesn't mean I don't care. It's just that my emotional mind just can't recall as much as my heart wants to write. You're not forgotten.
*I want to be that eagle that soar in the overcast skies...
