I was eight years old when my granddaddy died
|
He that showed me the signs I still miss him sometimes
|
Been a long time ago but his words still ring true
|
Whatever you do be a seeker
|
|
All these years I have wandered and wherever I roamed
|
I was never alone or forsaken I know
|
Somewhere way out yonder I know I will find
|
That a bright beacon shines for a seeker
|
|
You canĄŻt always believe your eyes
|
ItĄŻs your heart that sees through all the lies
|
And the first answer follows the first question asked
|
The mystery unmasked by the seeker
|
|
In a world full of sorrow, hunger and pain
|
ItĄŻs so hard to explain why IĄŻm still travelinĄŻ
|
But thereĄŻs a new day tomorrow and maybe IĄŻll hold
|
Something brighter than gold to a seeker
|
