Sun is going out
white lily sad hangs head
unseen tears blurred view.

The world in mourning.
Looking at the future,
Is it cloudy, or clear,
Thinking about the last day,
Is it far, or near.

Everyone’s, soul is searching,
Experiencing different ways,
That’s why were not to judge others,
During this life, stay.

A soul travel’s through many life’s,
Searching for perfection, every day,
Learning from all situations,
That it passes through, along the way.

A caution from the end of this
line to the the start of yours,
my dear,
we can't define love,
try and try as we might,
because it writhes and it yearns
and it's all cutting and bite
because life is mean and the world
will one day just burn and
we want love to be greater than
the end of one life or the stain
left behind words.

Love can lift you and love can burn
and love gives power and it is stern
but love makes you capable
of things beyond your means
and love is wise but love also bleeds.

And we talk about love like it
is some kind of cure but it's
as poison as palliative and it's
often much too much to bear
you get on the river boat,
smile warmly, the wind wafts your hair
but love is/isn't a river and
life is so often crueler than fair

and love can lift us and love can burn
and love can make us capable
and love can sing and love can turn
but what we find we can do
to win a heart or persevere through
we can also inflict on people
as in love as you.

when I say I love you, dear
I mean it with all my heart.
this thing we've built is
my greatest work of art.
but life is difficult to live
from finish to start
and love can seem bright,
my dear,
but it can also be dark.
We lie together
Longing for another night
Wishing for more time
Our connection,
is a pale moon above
and stars that shine
they are yours as they are also mine,
we feel the grey of falling rain
the warmth of joy
and the chill of pain,
we live we love, we laugh and we die
with the same yellow sun
and the same blue sky
i love country music with its country beat
with its country sound puts dancing in your feet
steel guitars and banjos and a country song
make you wanna dance for whole night long

folks they get together for the jamboree
makes them feel alive sets there spirit free
dancing all night long till the break of day
to the country sound they dance the night away

i love country music with its country beat
with its country sound puts dancing in your feet
steel guitars and banjos and a country song
makes you wanna dance for whole night long

the fiddles and the banjos with there country beat
puts music your soul dancing in your feet
dancing in a line they dance the night away
dancing all night long till the break of day
