Porch Wine

My youth is slipping away

The chorus is over

We're left single notes

To sound and to fade

There's no fixed road

There's no straight line

To merely drift is to close your eyes

The realization of great potential

Leads to the feeling of an emptiness

And what to fill it with in our time?

The tick of the clock drowns out all sound

Security leads to neglect of the future

Only death is certain

My youth is slipping away

The chorus is over

We're left single notes

To sound and to fade

Only death is certain

We're floating downstream

The scenery changes

We remain unaware

Of the waterfall ahead

Only death is certain

We're floating downstream

The scenery changes

We remain unaware

Only death is certain

We're floating downstream

The scenery changes

My youth is slipping away

The chorus is over

We're left single notes

To sound and to fade

Only death is certain

We're floating downstream

The scenery changes

We remain unaware

Of the waterfall ahead
