As the time is passing through     From the present to the past The moment is all wrapped up .....               ....To be ....put away at last!!                    A GIFT-----       From some future time            When all the signs                 Will show you             That you now have                A need for seeing   Past the thing you already know                 When the present                   Becomes history---    In a past thats not yet opened-- To be seen for what it is ---or isn't Depending on what you're hoping                      While the past ....                  .....is time passing                     And time gone ....                       .......is  going faster              Now is the time for you...to                           Re-- examine                      A GIFT THAT WAS                     Once your master                           Its so hard to take                              Even a single step                             To know now                   That the thing you fear                          Stands before you                          As the lost and found              So the only question left is right here                     Will you see the past                             Whenever                     You choose to lose                       Or gain by seeing....                                        .....The past                            That you've kept                   All wrapped up inside                  That is now your future---                    If it is presently----              Being Opened and Examined          But if you can just imagine            Some mi'nute  past defeat            As the thing that is now....yours                       FOR - GIVING                   So rather than.......anonymously          Presenting it to you .....yourself             By your own past deceit           Make sure that you return it        UNOPENED --- Along with the receipt.
