Wash It Away (July 15)
I am getting older, and time is moving faster, so soon I will meet my dying day.
The man who has kissed me, and our years of history, the unknown and the mystery’s going to wash it all away.
He isn’t mine to keep, and neither mine to seek, let the whole thing go and wash it all away.
Like the river in its path, moving slow or rushing fast, choicelessly my past will be washed away.
Like a flower that blooms once, in life’s enormous dace we will be washed away.
And once is all that’s needed on this joyus earth we’re breeded and then washed away.
I am getting older, and time is moving faster, so soon I will meet my dying day.
I give thanks for what was taken, apologies for what’s broken, take comfort friend we both shall meet so soon our dying day.
Like a flower that blooms once, in life’s enormous dace we will be washed away.
And once is all that’s needed on this joyus earth we’re breeded and then washed away.
Take comfort friend we both shall meet so soon our dying day.
We won’t bear our losses, but neither do we keep our gains.
Like a flower that bloomed once, in life’s enormous dance you were washed away.
And once was all that’s needed on this joyus earth was breeded and then washed away.
Take comfort friend we both shall meet so soon our dying day.
We won’t bear our losses, but neither do we keep our gains.
