Lyrics Gordon Lightfoot

Gordon Lightfoot

In My Fashion

In my fashion I have been a good man

I have loved and I have lost

Ever after I will be remembered

In my fashion, in my way

There have been times, I have seen the reaper

In the bad times and the good

I have bent down, I have touched the ground

Saying prayers and touching wood

In my fashion, I have been a father

I have loved and been loved in return

From the ashes, I have kept the home fires

Burning after all was said and done

Now take a look at me

Do I look like the kind of guy?

The kind of fool who went to school

And had to stand on a stool

Because he couldn't come to terms

With a slide rule

Take a look around again

Is it any different now than it was then?

In my fashion I have been a good man

I have loved and I have lost

And ever after I will be remembered

In my fashion, in my way

And ever after I will be remembered

In my fashion, in my way
