Days are dragging on Leaving only their fading marks Still we're hanging on To find a reason for it all -Is this just a whim of mine -Trusting a new dawn? Far from view and out of sight I lock my door, turn off the light Head for bed to ease my pain To find my true self once again That's when I need someone To turn to and honestly pray That life should be different tomorrow Than it was today Keeping up these days Demands all my thoughts and toil Searching my own face In rivers long since dry -Is this just a whim of mine -Trusting a new dawn? Hasty hours without a pause Shuffling 'round to find a cause Too much thought means less to make Too much worry for my own sake Far from view and out of sight I lock my door, turn off the light Head for bed to ease my pain To find my true self once again And I miss the times when Give and take took an equal part When joy seemed much closer And not far from a fearful heart
