The Thing

"The thing," he said,
"that makes me tick -
That makes my heart beat extra quick -
That makes my eyes fill up with tears -
That still sustains me through the years -

"The thing," he said,
"that brings me life -
That brings me joy in times of strife -
That brings me dreams when days are long -
That always taught me right from wrong -

"The thing," he said,
"that gives me love -
That gives me light from stars above -
That gives me luck when life's a trek -

The thing that gives me hope is Shrek."
