Called you
Hoping you’d answer the phone
But I guess nobody
Was at home
Left a message
For you anyway
Wishing you
A very pleasant day

I was hoping
To catch up with you
We have so much
Catching up to do
I’ve lost some loved ones
But I thought you knew
So tell me
What’s been happening with you

I imagine
Your kids are all grown
Probably with
Some children of their own
Are they still with you
Or have they gone
And how many wild seeds
Have they sown

It’s amazing
How time seems to fly
And what it does
To folks like you and I
The law of average
Always will apply
That every living thing
One day will die
