When you look at the morning sun
Do you see what I see
Or
could I be the only one
Seeing just what I need
I envision a different man
Than the one I've become
Pray the ocean will
understand
That my time isn't done
Everyone's leading
But nobody's dancing
You stand on the stage
Just to turn all
alone
I have waited this way
For a lifetime of days
I can't wait for the morning sun
As I stand with the sea
And the
ocean she understands
Just the man I could be
Somewhere else there's a different world
With a sun that will
rise
And a moon that will take its place
In another man's eyes
And perhaps it's a better world
Than the one that I
see
Or if better for no one else
Perhaps better for me
Here in the dark where the sky shows its Graces
Revealing each star
while the moon plays the fool
Saying how it must be while the night disagrees
I can't wait for the morning sun
As I stand
with the sea
And the ocean she understands
Just the man I could be
No, no, time doesn't wait for you
No, no, leave it
alone
No, no, your days are far too few
This thing I have always known
When your time is uo it & #146; s true
They never
give another day to you
When your time is up it & #146; s through
No one cares how
Can't keep it
Can't save
it
Can't take it away with you
So I say we use it now
NOW HIS THOUGHTS GAVE WAY TO ANGER
AND HE LOUDLY CURSED AT
FATE
THAT IN A WORLD OF OPPORTUNITIES
THAT HE WAS DOOMED TO WAIT
THAT HIS LIFE COULD BE PREDESTINED
TO BE STUCK HERE ON
THIS SHORE
HE COULD NOT MAKE HIMSELF BELIEVE
THAT THERE WAS NOTHING MORE
