Storming through the start line All women dressed in pink Running for the love of life Trying to make you think
Messages to backs are pinned Proclaiming for who you race Ones that make you start to cry So you take your place
I'm not going to lie to you My tears flowed in streams I never thought I'd raise this much Not in all my dreams
£107.00's for Cancer Research Matthew I hope your proud! It felt good to honour you To run as part of the crowd
It was my intention to run quickly Fleet footed all the way But as my luck would have it That plan was ruined on the day
Torrential thunderstorms last night Turned our path in to a bog The thick mud pulled at our shoes A simple run became hard slog!
I've never felt so inspired By what people can do When they want to help another They helped me make it through
Hopefully someone like you Can one day be saved If we can help to find a way The path to health is paved!
I miss you Matthew, I hope you know From the bottom of my heart You are my guiding angel I know I've played my part
Raising money for cancer scientists To work on finding a cure Is the best way to spend saturday Of that I am truly sure!
