But the Days and Nights Are Long

Life is short, but the days and nights are long Time will heal all these wounds Some day soon I'll be rising I'll be strong But now I'm loosing all my battles Now I'm down and dropping still And this snow's blowing through Like some ghost With this blue I know too well Broken hearts keep on beating just the same So I guess I can too Go through these moves Facing forward, walking straight But now my glance keeps drifting downward Now my feet can't find their way And this cold's creeping in Through my bones Whisperin it's here to stay I'll bide my time, like there's any other way It moves too slow, moves too fast It's gone and past And stopped entirely today I know there's light on some horizon But I can't see so far ahead Patience and grace, blessed is love I'm loosin my faith In most of that stuff those wise men said
