Long time no see

[Bob May]

Hi all,
After All







 After all that I've known

passes, like a shadow, from my eyes and I am gone,

what will be the harvest of the seeds that I have sown?

When I find myself alone,... after all.




 When this world, in which I stand,

slips between my fingers like so many grains of sand.

Will I let it go? Or will I quickly close my hand?

Will I come to understand,... after all?




 After all that I see

fades into the mist as just a fleeting memory,

what road will I follow? Which direction will it lead?

Will I awaken from this sleep,... after all?




When this life with all it's cares

sets me free, oh will I see I could have better fared

if I had but believed in some far-away somewhere?

Oh, will I find you waiting there,... after all?

Bob
