Gone To Stay

Gone To Stay
(C Maiorano)

Here at the crossroads, with no ideas
River of time flows, year after year
We change as the wind blows, storm drawing near
The light of our life glows, then disappears

We wrestle with reason, struggle with fear
We weather the seasons, and smile through tears
Freeze when the heat’s on, misfortune we cheer
Forgiving the treason, the fates have prepared

The choices we make, the chances we take, the hearts that we break, will
Have their day The bridges we’ve crossed, the moments we’ve lost, the
Letters we’ve tossed, are gone to stay

Still chasing the rainbow, path is unclear
Wearing a halo, it’s our cross to bear
Doubting our hero’s, ignoring our cares
Existing in limbo, wish you were here

Dreams are imprisoned, mind unaware
In silence we listen, in loudness we hear
We’ve made our decision, so commonly rare
From ashes we’ve risen, as mist, in the air
