Perspective (Autumn Flowers)

Moonlighting these thoughts that haunt to no avail
Soon fighting remorse, night-train's back on the rails
Lost a lot in life but found so very very much
Better holding on than ever giving up

If she wasn't there to love & to hold
To bring me in from the cold 'til we grow old
If I couldn't sing with this strange voice of mine
Play these here strings for kind souls all this time
Perspective

The day he passed away in the garden
Our hearts all skipped a beat & hardened
A great man to honour, the king of the kingdom
Every praise that I find I promise to sing them

If all of my brothers could not lend an ear
If Father & Mother had not brought me here
If I hadn't passed my heyday to find something more meaningful in this self-obsessed life
Perspective

So when I awake trembling in fear I'll calm my fool’s mind knowing you're still here
The clouds overcast for so many years I'll blow away with smiles & warm happy tears
I'll remember that I can turn this around
This broken little heart-boat could still run aground
I'll pluck up the petals of courage within & make Autumn flowers for all of my sins
