7. Not Today (5:41)
What am I?
A torch without a fire
Lost with no tale to tell like tears on the pyre
Give me strength to fight and keep the fire burning
Please show me how to stall the final curtain
Who am I?
A man without a vision
I know I blazed my trail based on my decisions
East nor west, true north my perfect landing
My soul is winter bound, my heart is pending
Now she speaks to me
A whisper in the wind
Are you here to take me home?
Not today, autumn leaves are gently falling
Come tomorrow, let me live another day
Not today, it's a time for recalling
Talk tomorrow if it comes
Winter speaks of endless shades of grey
Sky is dark as dark can be this day
Seasons change, no autumn leaves remain
Winters tune some sort of croon, the final one
My final one
Now she speaks again
A howlin' in the wind
I am here to take you home
Not today, autumn leaves are gently falling
Come tomorrow, let me live another day
Not today, it's a time for recalling
Talk tomorrow if it comes
A torch without a fire
Lost with no tale to tell like tears on the pyre
Give me strength to fight and keep the fire burning
Please show me how to stall the final curtain
Who am I?
A man without a vision
I know I blazed my trail based on my decisions
East nor west, true north my perfect landing
My soul is winter bound, my heart is pending
Now she speaks to me
A whisper in the wind
Are you here to take me home?
Not today, autumn leaves are gently falling
Come tomorrow, let me live another day
Not today, it's a time for recalling
Talk tomorrow if it comes
Winter speaks of endless shades of grey
Sky is dark as dark can be this day
Seasons change, no autumn leaves remain
Winters tune some sort of croon, the final one
My final one
Now she speaks again
A howlin' in the wind
I am here to take you home
Not today, autumn leaves are gently falling
Come tomorrow, let me live another day
Not today, it's a time for recalling
Talk tomorrow if it comes
