Looking Backward, Part 2 Words and Music: David Burr Values remain at the heart of the soul Who's watching the years take a toll The emptiness fades with the passing of time Perspective has changed what was "known" You had to grow and move on You had to learn how to live With all that you do to yourself now you're playing your songs again The drifter returns with the vision restored Resentments have left the decor He no longer shoulders the burden alone Of the internal struggle we all own He found the light of a home He had to learn to forgive Himself for the person he was He accepted the truth of it all |
