Between Young and Old

Our way might be rocky
On the path we're ascending
The sea might get choppy
As one part of the journey's ending
Though the vista in the distance
Looks good to me

If my tears were diamonds
I'd be rich beyond words
But better yet, like the birds
I'm free

And as the clouds part like curtains
On life's stage
The sun comes into view
And warms my soul
As my heart that's been aching
Comes of age
I feel the blessing of your love
Taking hold
Somewhere between young and old

The thoughts in my head
Are pictures of tomorrow

I savor them instead
Of memories born of sorrow

'Cause that vista in the distance
Looks good to me

If gratitude was gold
I'd be richer than kings
But better still, I've got wings
To fly free

And as the clouds part like curtains
On life's stage
The sun comes into view
And warms my soul
As my heart that's been aching
Comes of age
I feel the blessing of your love
Taking hold
Somewhere between young and old

If my tears were diamonds
I'd be rich beyond words
But better yet, like the birds
I'm free
