I loaf in the memories of the recent past,
I smile at those moment we had.
I took all at ease when I was with you,
You taught me what none could teach.
A sober hangover that lasted long,
Days were stark with clouds dark.
A lesson learnt in sorrow, a lesson learnt in time.

I'm not seen in light, dark is my recent friend,
It walks me through the time that has to come.
I see myself in a brawl with my shadow,
I can feel that I'm losing me.
But a few scream from behind, this is not you.
Those who'll never let you go are only a few.
A lesson learnt in sorrow, a lesson learnt in time.
as we close this chapter of yesterday
to start the new chapter of today
times of the moment have now slipped away


with the sights of new faces
and the sights of new places

the new things we learn
the things that drive us

the memories of the past, go by so fast
our brief memories, from our past history

the thing that we cast. are the things that last
the things we forget are the things that we miss

what the future has in store, is something I don’t know
we can only dream and take it slow

slow for the moment, the moment of time
as life goes by , one second at a time
there was a little lark a music fan was he.
to be a great musician he just long to be
he took a trip to Nashville down in Tennessee
writing country songs and singing them for free.
hoping for a contract and be a country star
singing songs he wrote while playing his guitar.
lark he got his chance at the grand ole opry hall
a venue for the country stars the best one of them all
lark he was hit and got his record deal
overnight sensation and a country star for real
