MANY ARE THE DAYS
WHICH FOLLOW ME ACROSS
THE JOURNEY WHICH I'VE MADE
OFTEN TIMES WITH QUESTIONS
WHY CAME THE MYRIAD LOSS
IN YOUTH THERE BE MUCH FEARLESSNESS
AS THOUGH NO STRENGTH WOULD FADE
BUT NOW, I'M GETTING OLDER
MUCH THROUGH SAND I WADE
MOMENTS PASS SO QUICKLY
THE MIND BECOMES ASTIR
SOME DAYS JOINED WITH EMPTINESS
OFT'N MOMENTS BLUR
THERE ONCE WAS DEPTHLESS CLARITY
WITH HOPE AND DREAMS TO SPARE
NOW MY DAYS ARE SPENT ALONE
AND WAIT FOR CHARITY
THE WIFE HAS GONE
MY CHILD HAS GROWN
RAISING BABIES, SHE
NO TIME TO SPARE
HER CHILDREN RUN
BUT DO NOT LOOK TO ME
A GRANDFATHER I AM, FOR SURE
SO, TELL ME WHERE TO STAND
NOT ONE TO GIVE A MOMENTS TIME
NO HELPING HAND TO LEND
MANY TIMES THE QUESTION
TO WHAT WILL BE MY END
I'LL TELL YOU MOST EMPHATICALLY
THE ANSWER HAS BEEN FOUND
I DO BELIEVE THE TRUTH NOW IS
I'LL LATE BE IN THE GROUND
AS THOUGH THE DAY BE HASTENED
NO PRECIOUS STONE THERE BE
LOOKING TOWARD THE HEAVENS NOW
THE GLORIOUS STARS TO SEE
A DREAM IS NOW ENVISIONED
NAME ONE, AFTER ME
THEN AS YOU LOOK INTO THE SKY
PERHAPS A MEMORY BE
AS IF MY GAZE HAS FOLLOWED YOU
ON, INTO HISTORY
IF, THIS BE TRUE
THEN JOY WILL COME
AS SILENTLY I WATCH
T'WILL BE NO DOUBT
THE TRUTH WILL BE
I LIVE ON,
ENDLESSLY....
