What's that on the road?
Looks like an old suit of cloths
and the key to the lock-box
where my childhood secrets are enclosed.
There's an old book; its pages rustle like the leaves that blow by in the wind
and I stoop to pick it up, but you cannot live the past again.
The time seems long gone
when we could sing a simple song.
But the things that we really need,
I think we've known them all along.
Moonlight on the lawn; the wind
blowing through the trees sings its song...
You may not quite hear it,
but that doesn't mean it's gone.
Say what you say, see what you see;
I gather up the things I think are me
they say someday we'll lose it all,
but you would not know sitting by the endless sea.
Clock of the years;
the moments flee like frightened deer
into the mist
where the present disappears
Clock of the stars;
we see it from our gridlocked cars,
always spinning
no matter where we are
Say what you say,
see what you think you see;
we have one hand on today,
and one hand on what we want to be
Sometimes I feel like a way station on an ancient road
caring for the strangers inside my self.
Sometimes I feel like a story that has been told
by someone else.
Sometimes I feel like a pair of dice
about to know
the truth on the very next throw,
but as it happens, though,
I feel like a feather
that God has thrown
somewhere between Heaven
and the good earth below
The time seems long gone
when we could sing a simple song.
But the things that we really need,
I think we've known them all along.
Moonlight on the lawn; the wind
blowing through the trees sings its song
You may not quite hear it,
but that doesn't mean it's gone.
