And some day when I sit,
content in my rocking chair
Watching life soar by,
I'll look to my side and see
my world taking it's time
Reading a book
enjoying a cool summers Breeze
and my world will look up
from that book
"What is wrong?"
but I'll have no reply

For While I watch life soar by
I'll hear a whisper in my ear.
We've had a great run,

Enjoy the birds and the bees.
Leave the rest up to me,
You're in the best of company.
I'll just nod and agree.

To my world,  I will say
"Nothing.  It's just beautiful today
Watching the birds fly away
And the bees noisily play.
I'm in great company,
Just listening to cars zooming by
Watching my life like a movie
It's happy ending so sweet.

I see a girl and a boy, well evolved in years.
They look so happy on that cool summer's Eve.
Her reading a book,
Him rocking peacefully."
