Life's Tale

The sun came after the rain

And i stood outside on a holiday

I thought about where i've been

I thought about where i'm going

And i thought about nothing at all

The breeze blew through the pines

Whispered past lives of mine

I thought about where i'm going

I thought about where i've been

And i thought about it all

Yesterday got swept by today

Now only a memory remains

And a rock, and a couple of stones

But they've been here before

I'm a past life of my future self

Keeping parts of me in jars on a shelf

To know where i've been

To know where i'm going

To know not knowing at all
