Stage Left
Thousands of islands
so many places to go
still my heart
comes home to you
Empty soul
full mind,
Staying, waiting
praying for a sign
The world turns
as I lay still
still trying to climb
that premordial hill
Set all hopes
raised all dreams
placed on a pedestal
unclear and unseen
Moving up
crashing down
banking on possibilities
Mine but not my own
Sleeping, wailing
knowing nothing is sure
unable to decipher
what is real and pure
Counting my blessings
and the tragedies past
finding myself
among this rowdy cast
The stage was mine
for a second or two
took my bow
now starting anew
Unsure of life
investing in love
praying day and night
to the power above
Give me strength
show me the path
reinforce my affairs
stay in the aftermath
I love who I have
I cherish what I gained
I remember what I lost
Counting what remained
Now I begin
Step one, step two
ready to go again
for my love of God and You
so many places to go
still my heart
comes home to you
Empty soul
full mind,
Staying, waiting
praying for a sign
The world turns
as I lay still
still trying to climb
that premordial hill
Set all hopes
raised all dreams
placed on a pedestal
unclear and unseen
Moving up
crashing down
banking on possibilities
Mine but not my own
Sleeping, wailing
knowing nothing is sure
unable to decipher
what is real and pure
Counting my blessings
and the tragedies past
finding myself
among this rowdy cast
The stage was mine
for a second or two
took my bow
now starting anew
Unsure of life
investing in love
praying day and night
to the power above
Give me strength
show me the path
reinforce my affairs
stay in the aftermath
I love who I have
I cherish what I gained
I remember what I lost
Counting what remained
Now I begin
Step one, step two
ready to go again
for my love of God and You
