Story Behind The Song
An 18 year old girl died of cancer this year. I never met her, but she was friends with my best friend. It just goes to show how amazing of a person Kelsey was, that she still inspires people to make the most out of their lives. I wanted to tell her story so her beauty wouldn't go left un-noticed.
May she live on in your heart as well as mine.

Lyrics
You may think its a tradgedy
That she died
One day shy
Of her nineteenth birthday.
But if she could hear you
She would think you were crazy
Shed say I had a good life
I learned a lot lately. Lately.
Dont clap for me
This song aint for me
This songs for a girl named Kelsey
Kelsey.
Dont clap for me
This song aint for me
This songs for a girl named Kelsey
Kelsey.
Every day she was
surrounded by friends
And they made her laugh
And they helped her cleanse.
She wrote this poem
Called To Hope or Not to Hope
And the room was hers whenever she spoke
She was a bright, bright light.
Sunday morning came a little to fast
And everyone was praying for the minutes to last
But Kelsey said
I cant stay
So mom and dad
Sat with her on her bed
And they touched her face
And they stroked her head
And they watched her
As she went away
Dont clap for me
This song aint for me
This songs for a girl named Kelsey
Kelsey.
Dont clap for me
This song aint for me
This songs for a girl named Kelsey
Kelsey.
This song was meant to celebrate your life
But we get sad and we still cry
For you Kelsey.
