In that Sweet By & By

Gone with the wind, are the days of my youth

Careless and free, in search for pure truth

Innocent and new, each day better than the last

But now as I look back, they all went by so fast

Each time I return to the town where i was raised

Another building down, another unfamiliar face

But for those that I know, I wonder do they feel the same

If they saw me in a crowd, I wonder would they know my name

The greatest pain of all, is that walk through a field of stone

And to sit and talk a while, to your friends who have gone on

The only thing that makes me smile, come the day I die

I hope to see each one and all, in that sweet by and by
