It's an up hill battle and a down hill age
But don't say I didn't try
I wrote I love you on about every page
And someday will come when you see goodbye

Old men shouldn't write love letters
That's for the young at heart to have such treasures
Now social security is my only wage
It's an up hill battle and a down hill age

The tears upon my cheek missing you is what they speak
It could be that never again we meet
I wrote I love you on about every page
Forgive me now as it's an up hill battle and a down hill age

Now that my heartaches are gone
I'll be moving on
And I'm glad that tomorrow will bring a brand new day
She didn't want to give me closure but I got it anyway

The ending was kind of loud like a motorcycle on a steep grade
And when the noise is over and fumes begin to fade
I'll take a walk and then relax somewhere in the cool shade
And this thing about closure I got it anyway

I guess a woman gets mad when she can't make a guy suffer anymore
And I believe summertime in South Carolina gets hot and such a bore
Here in Kentucky poor folks don't have much to say
But this thing about closure but I got it anyway

Now some people will laugh when they see my old elcamino
Coming down the road in this nice month of may
I'll adjust my rear view mirror to what the noise is behind me
She didn't want to give me closure but I got it anyway

I'll ask the moon to serenade you
I'll ask the stars to hum along
As moon beams walk you home

And when you reach your doorstep turn around
Look and listen to what your shadow has to say
Cause this is how I pray

And you will never be lonely
No you will never be lonely when you are far away
Cause this is how I pray

And when you see the clock on the wall
Has it's hands together you'll know my love is here to stay
Cause this is how I pray

Nothing for me to see
Nothing for me to do
That place had a name
And now I'm forgetting it too

Friends have all disappeared
Into thin air
If only I could exist
In a town of somewhere

Wake up early mornings go walking in the dark
Lights turning on in peoples houses
And daybreak will find me
With a longing heart

For a new beginning
A life that is fair
Guess I'll keep on drifting
Till I find a town of somewhere

The river is winding round round
The river is winding round round
The world is spinning round round
And I don't know where I am

The river is looking dirty now
The river is looking dirty now
The world is looking dirty now
And I don't know where I am

The politicians go round round
The politicians go round round
The government is not what our forefathers found
And I don't know where I am

The eagle is slowly flying round round
The eagle is slowly flying round round
Things in the sky are falling down down
And I don't know where I am

There was a boy and a girl who at times they didn't get along
So he sat down and wrote a sad song it went this away
And that away and now right away I'll go away
And you will find someone new and I will cry away my love for you

There was a girl and a boy who at times they didn't get along
So she sat down and wrote a sad song it went this away
And that away and now right away I'll go away
And you will find someone new and I will cry away my love for you

It was a love story so sad but true
A love story that breaks your heart into
There was a boy and a girl
And till this day cry away my love for you

Saying things safely like you're the boss
Saying things safely like I'll never make you cross
Saying things truthfully like I love you
Saying things truthfully like I trust you

Saying things knowingly as we share emotions
Saying things knowingly that God will bless our devotion
Saying things gratefully and beyond measure
Saying things gratefully you are my greatest treasure

Saying things hopefully as we walk together
Saying things hopefully and to keep forever
Saying things you already knew
Saying things like I love you

You know him as a hero with a heart of gold
But try to understand
When you say your prayers
Say a prayer for spiderman

He wants good to conquer evil
He wants love to be everywhere
And people are happy when he shows up
Cause they know he really cares

Little kids wave when they see him
Grown ups say yes he can
Do most anything yes most anything
Oh how big the heart of spiderman

No matter how strong the web of love
Some prayer is needed too
And you know when he is there
He makes you glad you are you

When you see the sun shinning upon the water
As on the beach you stroll hand in hand
If it wouldn't be to much bother
Say a prayer for spiderman

I thought I would never write another song for you
I believed it was over and done
But Christmas finds me missing you
And this letter I write must be the very last one

I want to sing merry Christmas to you I hope you don't mind
I know you must still be beautiful for beauty like yours will never fade
And I know you must still be kind
For your heart was heaven made

May santa bring you a little snow
And if you were near I'd walk with you neath some mistletoe
Before a new year comes I must say goodbye
Now auld lang syne and I really must go

But I'd like to sing merry Christmas to you I hope you don't mind
I know you must still be beautiful for beauty like yours will never fade
And I know you must still be kind
For your heart was heaven made

In a little town this side of nowhere
And across the county line there still aint no hope
For happiness with someone to marry
And I didn't even mail the last letter I wrote

Around here it still looks like nineteen sixty
And pot holes go on for miles
No one here is whistling Dixie
No one here knows how to wear a smile

In a little town this side of nowhere
Through the years the damage was done and no way to mend
And here life is wasting away
And no one wants to call that a sin

Before there was stress there was being young
Before there was stress there was being alive
Before there was stress I was me
Now I'm just someone trying to survive

Before there was stress there was a view
Before there was stress the colors adjusted their hue
And I could see for miles and miles
Before there was stress I had lots of style

Before there was stress the curtains were never drawn
And the days went on and on
Before there was stress I had the comfort of time
Before there was stress everyday was always mine

There's a song I want to sing
There is joy I need to bring
Have you heard of the holy wedding
It's happening soon in the month of everything

All of God's children everywhere
Will find joy beyond compare
The holy spirit will introduce a holy king
It's happening soon in the month of everything

Mysteries will be revealed destiny will be fulfilled
And faith will be standing still
In the presence of The Lord while we sing
In the month of everything
