Lyrics

As we write our book of poems • We ignore the perfect rhymes • And replace them with the words • That have more meaning in our lives • There is comfort on our faces • Drawn in permanent black ink • The kind of smile that last for days • Until you rinse it down the sink • Uh oh, wha uh oh • If the clouds they never form • And the wind it never blows • Then we'll thank God for all the good times • But stay ready on our toes • Now we cross the shifting sands • Heart in heart and hand in hand • And we can see over the rainbow • There's a distant promised land • Heart in heart • Hand in hand • May we never feel the vacancy again • Heart in heart • Hand in hand • And forever fill the emptiness within •
