Light's no longer shining
Darkness falls, you burst in two
The truth is sometimes, sometimes hiding
A pack of lies makes it through
Through the years
You've watched the world with lucent tears
Achieving wisdom as time goes by
You've learned your lessons
On your ride - into freedom
Old man ? I'm told man
You're teaching forgiveness ? so tell me
Old man ? so you can
Turn water into wine
I can see it in your eyes
All the secrets that you hide
I can see them in your smile
All your hair turned to grey
All your hopes fading away
There's nothing left to say
Words just ain't rhyming
We've got no answer, got no clue
For higher spirits we're all, we're all climbing
Up to the skies into the blue
You can't see
You can hardly hear, you've lost your taste
So what's remaining?
Still you feel
And there's music in the way you talk
So you're sustaining
