你 came and changed my life
你 Let Me survive
I never felt like this before
It's very perfect 更多 Than I Thought
I came to This world hopeless,helpless
你 Made Me Speechless
I was alone with no friend
你 came my friend
Until The end
and never looked for How Much 你 had to spend
when My fears came
你 came and took The shame
你 lifted me up In the sky
and Made me fly so high
like a butterfly
cause you're 天使 In My sky
你 opened my heart
Through blocked walls
你 Made Me See the light
through Darkness night
你 were My dreams
through My fighting In nightmare
I can't explain Much
how I Feel About You
Just Let my feelings come to you
Cause I 爱情 you
yes It's true!!!!!!!!!!

The world was in great depression,

I wish 你 hadn't gone,
all 你 had to do was sing one 更多 song.
I'm 写作 this to you.
your death has made me blue.
Why did 你 pass on June 25, 2009?
"This is it" last 音乐会 then 你 had to resign.
On my continuation my friend
told me 你 had passed 你 were dead.
God decided he needed you,
I respected the things 你 used to do.
Your songs were good, great,
to me and the 音乐 world 你 were a saint.
耶稣 decided he wanted 你 my friend,
你 and I know that your 音乐 is not at an end.
The world kept talking about him,
the planet and the sun now seemed a little less bright, dim.
Goodbye 你 were a story, a light,
see 你 later and when I see you, 你 will be a sight.

TMZ has learned Michael Jackson's tomb has been defaced 由 a stealth band of vandals -- who have marked the walls of MJ's mausoleum with hidden messages ... and it's all in permanent ink.
Security at Forest Lawn in Glendale, CA is on the lookout for "fans" who have been 写作 messages in hard-to-spot places outside the main window of the building in which MJ is entombed.
The 写作 is mostly hidden underneath ledges -- 或者 in spots covered 由 bushes -- and contains messages like, "Miss you" and "Keep the dream alive."
Reps at Forest Lawn are pretty ticked off -- telling TMZ, "Activity such as this, is a prime example why we are evaluating the level of access to the various entrances of the Great Mausoleum."
Forest Lawn also tells us that anyone caught vandalizing the cemetery will be banned for life.

The company suing the Michael Jackson estate for $300 million over the Jackson family 音乐会 that never took place just got two strikes against it, and the pitcher was a federal judge.
The judge on Tuesday threw out two of the three claims AllGood Entertainment filed against the estate, AEG and Frank Dileo.
The suit claims Dileo, MJ's alleged former manager, made a deal with AllGood that Michael would perform at a Jackson Family 音乐会 before doing any other gigs. 由 launching the 伦敦 series of concerts, AllGood claims Jackson breached his deal and cost AllGood a bundle.
But a federal judge ruled AllGood's claim for fraud and tortious interference (i.e., intermeddling) was bogus. All that is left of the lawsuit is a breach of contract claim.
The estate claims Dileo never had authority to make a deal with AllGood.
