I vaguely remember
This sweet little child
That once owned this body
In which I reside
His joys they were simply
And so was his love
For all things in nature
And heaven above
But time has a habit
Of stealing away
The things that we cherish
Both now and always
But innocence lost
Just can’t be regained
By looking at things
That now seems so plain
Though once they looked like magic
BLINK OF AN EYE
IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE
I’M A MEMORY
IN THE STAMP OF A FOOT
I AM GONE
IN THE TURN OF A PAGE
I’M AM HISTORY
WHILE THIS LOVELY WORLD
CARRIES ON
FOR MY MOMENTS TO YOU
MAY SEEM FLEETING
IN THE VASTNESS
THAT WE CALL TIME
BUT I’LL TAKE ALL THAT MY GOD
HE GIVES ME
AND KNOW IT TRULY WAS MINE
FOR IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE
I’M A MEMORY
IN THE STAMP OF FOOT
I AM GONE
BUT I KNOW THIS OLD WORLD THAT’S ABOUT
WILL SPIN EVERMORE
ON AND ON
DOORS SWING
DOORS SWING ON HINGES
THAT GO TOO AND FRO
SO THEY’LL ALWAYS BE THINGS
YOU WILL NEVER KNOW
SO LIVE FOR EACH SECOND
AND I’M SURE YOU WILL SEE
THAT THE WORLD IS THE WAY
THAT ITS MEANT TO BE
SOMETIMES YOU’LL BE HAPPY
SOMETIMES YOU’LL BE SAD
SO REJOICE IN EACH MOMENT
AND FOREVER BE GLAD
FOR LIFE IS A GIFT
THAT ONE DAY WILL END
SO PLEASE SPEND IT WISELY
MY SWEET MORTAL FRIEND
