Old eyes staring out from the porch
Old eyes look out and see what was once
Old eyes see so very much
Old eyes watch out for so many need love
And yet they can see right through all of us
Wise words falling from those lips
Wise words try to persuade us to live
Wise words say so very much
Wise words tell us what we all should know
And yet they aren't good unless they're heard
And I can see you here sitting with me
Although you're gone you're a guide I see
And I know I'll learn as your touch is what it's always been
Experience
Lived life seen just about all
Lived life felt more pain than most will know
Lived life heard more than one call
Lived life taken risks that saved so many more
And yet you still have hope for us all
