TIME
As I look from my window today,
there's a bit of a mist on the hill.
The road runs to town in its usual way.
The highway hums in the still.
A bird flutters by with a twig for a nest.
Just like a usual Spring.
It's a postcard scene, and you never would guess,
that nothing is really the same.
Chorus
Time has a way of distilling a mood.
The same kind of way a flower grows.
Time can teach us to sing the same old tune,
with a feeling that only Time knows.
As I look from my window today,
I can almost see them pass,
the figures from ages of Time's parade,
like a flowing image in glass.
The sights and the songs of seasons of Earth,
all have a place in the heart,
and every death and every birth,
has added a special part.
Chorus
Time has a way of bringing it home,
to the Wanderer on the Road of Time,
that we are never really alone,
we are weaving the Soul of our kind.
