TRAVELER STOPPING BY

Sunlight filters through the stained glass windows
Father turns to light the candle
Twenty cents worth of paraffin goes up in smoke
To a tune by Handel

Meanwhile, wondering what the fuss is all about
Out here in the peace and quiet
I will never hear another car alarm where I have gone
Take this tie and untie it

I was just a traveler stopping by
Wondering if the mess I found was equal to the one I left behind

All those scenes I acted out less than perfectly
Wish I could have replayed 'em
And the fifteen hundred animals I ate
Don't believe I repaid 'em

Me and all the winged souls I've come to know out here
Can't help you now... but hope we made some changes
Surely as the stars come out beyond a doubt we all amount to much more
Than a horde of angels

I was just a traveler stopping by
Wondering if the mess I found was equal to the one I left behind

And I've got time
A year a day a century it's all the same to me
I'll watch the clouds go by forevermore
And hurt for sleep nevermore
