The Crimson Sunset
Mike Portnoy
The Crimson Sunset
I'm much wiser now
A lifetime of memories run through my head
They taught me how for better or worse, alive or dead
I realize there's no turning back
Life goes on the offbeaten track
I sit down with my son
Set to see the Crimson Sunset
(Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)
Many years have come and gone
I've lived my life, but now must move on
(Gather ye rosebuds while ye may)
He's my only one
Now that my time has come
Now that my life is done
We look into the sun
"Seize the day and don't you cry,
Now it's time to say good-bye
Even though I'll be gone,
I will live on, live on."
