If they would find a cure when I'm a kid

I could ride a bike, and sail on rollerblades, and

I could go on really long nature hikes





If they would find a cure when I'm a teenager

I could earn my license and drive a car, and

I could dance every dance at my senior prom





If they would find a cure when I'm a young adult

I could travel around the world and teach peace, and

I could marry and have children of my own





I could... if they would

I could... if they would





If they would find a cure when I'm grown old

I could visit exotic places and appreciate culture

And proudly share pictures of my grandchildren





If they would find a cure when I'm alive

I could live each without pain, and

I could celebrate the biggest "thank you" of life ever





I could... if they would

I could... if they would





If they would find a cure when I'm buried into heaven

I could still celebrate with my brothers and sister there, and

I could still be happy knowing that I,

Knowing that I, was a part of the effort
