A CHANGING MAN
Sit down my darling, sit back and relax,
Just listen,
I'm here to tell you a story about the life
Of a man.
Like an outlaw roaming the countryside, day to day,
Mistakes not realized as he rides blindly Into
Loneliness.
Selfish and angry, as this anger stole the beauty
And hope
Of what the world had to offer, nothing seen through
His eyes.
Riding each day Into every sunset, never watching It
Go down,
Wasting time, running from a chance for happiness,
This man.
Into his life one day, a woman of such beauty, In his
Eyes he did see,
Still taking for granted all there could be, holding
Onto mistrust.
She went away, she went far away, she saw the sunset,
Not he,
A changing man lives today, he rides and rides with
His head held high.
Mistakes understood, selfishness gone away, anger
turned to laughter,
He can see the beauty of this world through his now
Opened eyes.
Wasting no time as he does not run, he watches the
Sun go down,
Someday with her again to see the sunrise, to watch
The sun go down.
A changing man can see, a changing man Is he.
