Memories of Old Days

Now the wings fell to ground as the miles they were crossed

All the years seemed like days as the time it was lost

For without his solutions and reasons for why

He should come up for air to the town once his by

So soon on his way

Shadows from the pathways

Memories of old days

That the journey was long many thoughts filled his mind

As he neared the stop always a dream he would find

But the road that he knew could no longer be seen

And the city lights flickered where lake waters gleamed

With sadness today

Hopes of joy yesterday

Memories of old days

Sky and the trees of his youthful time spent

Only smoke, only paper. No colour or scent

With sadness today

Hopes of joy yesterday

Memories of old days
