A stone wall weathers with age It's number becomes more feint A beginning more distant away What makes a spirit finally rest Still dressed in its Sunday best See how time wears us down So when a leaf falls to the ground Slowly becoming dust turning brown Perhaps erased by the sands of time Endlessly shaping in the ground Just biding my time I guess I think I’ll just hang around Run a little while longer if I can Separating who knows what from where No hurry to be already gone then there ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
