I sit down and watch
as the sun grows darker
and the clouds grow thicker
the mountains grow taller
and the rivers grow wider
your eyes become duller
and your smile less wider
the nights get longer
and the days grow shorter
the nights become darker
and the days less brighter
or is it just me?
as my days draw nearer
and my days less longer
my days grow fader
and yours become more blooming
I hope some day you'll be alright
and your days more brighter
and your nights less darker
the sun more brighter
and the winds blow swiftly
bringing you new memories
your sorrows become lesser
and your joy becomes more
your struggles become lesser
and your success even greater
know I'll be watching you
when you see the sun shine brighter
and the moon even brighter
the stars so many in the sky
the mountains grow shorter
and the rivers grow shallower
know I'll be watching
as I sit with the angels.
