Finding Home Lyrics - 7
Banjo Lament (copyright Frank & Teresa, Circling F Productions 2008)
oh I treasure my memories as I measure out my life
a thousand diamond moments
my life looks back at me stares deep into my soul
all at once I feel both young and old
don’t look back my friend you can’t go there again time moves on
there was once a moonlit night where I touched skin so soft
when I tasted my story on the wing
as I reached out to pull it in feverish with pain
I opened to the mystery again and again
don’t look back my friend you can’t go there again time moves on
I can hear you calling out my name
the storms have cleared and the waters calm again
we have traveled across a great divide
troubled times for now we’ve left them far behind
well a heart can be broken and mended once again
a life can be shattered then repaired
this old earth holds the blood and bones though the winds have scattered
we’re all holy on her ground
don’t look back my friend you can’t go there again time moves on
don’t look back my friend you can’t go there again time moves on
I can hear you calling out my name
the storms have cleared and the waters calm again
we have traveled across a great divide
troubled times for now we’ve left them far behind
