Eternity Marches On

Another year...birthday's here, Same wish...more doubt
Fingers crossed as icing melts, Try again, I blow the candles out
Many are the plans in this heart again,
So Simon says, or was it Solomon?
This heart's a lonely hunter desperate for the clues
Of what it has lost, and what it has yet to lose...

Seasons change, pages gone, And my eternity marches on
Will I turn my fortune? Time will tell...
So say goodbye today, with no end to words of farewell

Slumber came, I dreamt in vain, Two or three, no more
Got a plan, its heaven's and I check my ego at the door
Too tethered by my youth, to dare admit the truth
Do I press on or do I pout again?
Give me ears to hear the wisdom of Your ways
And leave my past still on holiday

Seasons change, pages gone, And my eternity marches on
Will I turn my fortune? Time will tell
Start a new life today, know there's a better way
