It Takes A Lifetime

Facing a mountain and the valley below
Hours of climbing to get down so low
First loves and memories are fading like snow
Where did I come from?
And where do I go?
Oh It takes a lifetime
Maybe the seasons will change things in me
Sorrowful trance into real ecstasy
Lunatic logic and feelings in vain
Must be a something I’ve still got to learn
Oh it takes a lifetime
Never knowing is it our turn to go
Hiding scars and the cracks don’t show
Wind and sand — Only one way to blow
Never knowing is it our turn to go
Oh it takes a lifetime — In Me
