lyrics

his eyesight is fading
his hearing is short
his knees give him trouble whenever he walks
the one that he lived for
has been gone a year
he hopes every morning soon he’ll follow there

It isn’t a trophy or win he remembers
but the hand that he held
one sweet, warm September
his heart was lost with the very first kiss
he never imagined the ending like this

long time gone

all that worked for
the years that he spent
a crumbling body is all there is left
except for a longing so deep and strong
to be with the one
made his life a song
