Waves #3: So ... what now?

*          *          *

"Do I have an answer to the great mystery?

No more than anyone else.  
Have I come and gone before? 
If so, how many times and in what fashion?  

Who or what was I before?

Does it even matter if I know the answer or not?  I am here now."

Graveyard Blues (Not Another Day)                                                 

(music & lyrics by Brent D. Scheihagen)

I miss the touch of my lady

now that she's so far away

I miss the touch of my lady

now that she's so far away

The sun won't shine no more

with the clouds in the way

The sun won't shine no more

with the clouds in the way

Well, I'm all dressed up

but there's nowhere I can go

and I can't stand it

not for another day

Even angels pass me by

for letting her slip away

Even angels pass me by

for letting her slip away

I can't see any more

without the light of my life

and I can't stand it

not for another day

Shut up inside, I feel -

     cold in darkness, I'm sealed

          devils call, but I won't heed

their temptation not my need

I'm planted here not to grow

for I have reaped what I have sown

I'm left so alone now

but I wait every day

I'm left so alone now

but I must wait every day

She came but once to see my 'stone

forevermore the earth my home

and so she turned 

and walked away...
