Before The Light Is Gone

Well I'd better get myself out Every morning brings another song With a melody to develop Morning, before the light is gone I hear on the bustling sidewalk Better keep on with my keeping on If I am on a bus that's piled up Working till the light is gone Street car rolling And the people on For me I was scrawling With a head full of songs I feel like a fainting flower Dreaming of when we were young Trying to fill every waking hour with meaning before the light is gone The rain kept falling A weekend long Me I was scrawling With a head full of songs Well I tried to keep myself from feeling like I don't belong Let's see what this life is so welcome Feeling, before the light is gone I'm all in, before the light is gone All day, before the light is gone
