Black Curtains
Time passed me by,
no more to be young and willing
no more for the songs I'm singing.
Too long I hear the reapers cry
His voice is strong and flowing,
his tone is powerful and knowing.
To the end of time
it will take whats mine,
all we hold dear
we depart to sheded tear.
I still look to the sky,
even now my heart keeps yearning
and the world keeps turning.
They say its all in the minds eye,
but my sight grows dim
and I am weary within.
To the end of time
it will take whats mine,
all we hold dear
we depart but have no fear.
So the end has come,
I still hold my faith at heart
may the saints help me start.
A new life has begun,
an old man passes on,
a young boy yet begun.
To the end of time
it will take whats mine,
all we hold dear
we depart to sheded tear
we depart but have no fear.
Time passed me by......
