Tell me, what is it you plan to do
With your one wild and precious life
Anything or Anyone that doesn’t bring you alive
Is too small and not worthy of you
For last year’s words belong
To last year’s language
And next year’s words await another Voice
And to make an end
Is to make a beginning

I wish I could tell you
How badly I’m missing you
It’s like diving in an ocean of hope
And getting out without a drop of it on my skin

I thought love was beautiful
But have I met her?
Do I know what she looks like?
Because she scarred me completely
Scarred my heart, my thoughts, my sanity
So tell me, is she really worth it?
I have loved and I have lost
So I seek no more of this
She is described with such entity
Envied by many, sought by all
A necessity to most, but not to me
So goodbye beautiful
But are you really beautiful?
I wouldn’t know for sure
Because you’ve hurt me severally
And I question your every intention
But this is goodbye
It would be courteous for me to say
Until we meet again
But if I were to be honest
I hope I never see you again

Of all the money that I had
I’ve spent it in good company
And all the harm that I’ve done
Alas it was to none but me
And all I’ve done for want of wit
To memory now I can’t recall
So fill to me the parting glassOf all the comrades that ever I had
They are sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that ever I had
They would wish me one more day to stay
But since it falls unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I’ll gently rise and I’ll softly callA man may drink and not be drunk
A man may fight and not be slain
A man may court a pretty girl
And perhaps be welcomed back again
But since it has so ought to be
By a time to rise and a time to fall
Good night and joy be with you all
The Way 🇰🇪
