Wisdom

Standing on the top of a mountain, looking out afar
when someone pulled up beside me, in a dark colored car
a man got out and walked over to me
then he asked me son, how far do you think you can see.

I wanted to answer, but i didn't know what to say
and the man turned around as if to walk away
but he started to speak, in a very gentle tone
he said once i was happy, and now I'm all alone.

He said i once had a true love, that captured my heart
but someone came in from nowhere and tore my world apart.

I would have gave him everything, but all he wanted was my wife
if i only told her i loved her more, i might still have my life.

So now you see and i hope you try to understand
that you can't make it through this life, if you don't have a friend.
Now listen to me very well and take some good advice
you only looked once, but you better think twice.

Cause life can be so empty, when you running all alone
then i turned and started to speak, but the old man was gone.
I stood there and though of what he just said
and thoughts of you, start running through my head.

So i jumped in my car and i then headed home
because i wanted to be beside you and that's where i belong.
To let you know i love you, and that i will always be here
and hold you tightly in my arms, so you'll know how much i care.©2007 Tracydr42
