The Visit

[Verse 1]

I'm so glad that you stopped in

And I had some things to say

But now they've been forgotten

They'll get said a different day

They'll get said a different way

'Cause everything keeps changing

Life is always raging

Beyond the walls and cages

Everybody changes

'til tomorrow's yesterday

[Verse 2]

I'm so glad that you stopped by

And I will not ask you why

It's just good to see you

You always made me smile

And you always made me sigh

Sometimes I still wonder

Why the sounds of distant thunder

Always pulled you under

Why you searched but never found her

Why she always got away

[Verse 3]

And somewhere on the hill

Inside the past we hear the bells

Catching only parts of thoughts

And fragments of ourselves

'til we begin

Again

[Verse 4]

I'm so glad that you are here

And I know that it's been years

I'm just glad to see you

And there's no need for tears

Time's best friend is fear

That's how it can find us

And do its greatest kindness

Always to remind us

That it's our only time inside

This body and this mind

[Verse 5]

And somewhere in my mind

Behind closed eyes I see the past

Catching every moment that went by

To make it last 'til I begin

Again
