After watching the WVU vs. Oklahoma game in Glendale, I realized something - Great things come to those who never stop believing.

After losing a key game to Pitt, losing a coach to greed, and losing a shot at the national championship game, they pulled through and showed the country what they're made of.

Bill Stewart and The Mountaineers inspired me to write this song about not letting other people quit. Instead, people should lift each other up and give each other hope.

Hope you all enjoy!

much love,
chris

Cherish (Original)
by Chris Cendana
Copyright 2008

I remember you in autumn leaves
In the river underneath the trees
I can feel your heartbeat in the breeze
Crossing this bridge

Watching closely I can see debris
From the cigarette burned at your feet
With your arms stretched out to feel release
Let them embrace you

The world is fighting now
People falling to the ground
What makes it right to end it now?

Cherish your life
Though the bad can get worse
Strap on your converse and say
Let's walk off the night
Get off the ledge
And cherish your life always

As the cold begins to shiver knees
Your lungs pump out what you can't see
Hands cry out and bleed in misery
Please offer it up

The last thing I want to see
Is doubting what you mean to me
Whom I love love love

Cherish your life
Though the bad can get worse
Strap on your converse and say
Let's walk off the night
Get off the ledge
And cherish your life always

Always always
offer it up

Cherish your life
Though the bad can get worse
Strap on your converse and say
Let's walk off the night
Get off the ledge
And cherish your life always

Hug someone. :)
