Keeping Time Lyrics by Alan Williams

Currents

0

Sounds are forming in my mind
And ringing in my ears
Hymns of faded valentines
And litanies of tears
Sacraments and rituals
To mark the passing days
I’ll change the strings on the song machine
Until the songs take wing
And fly away
Measured moments in the mirror
The vanishing of youth
Getting older’s just a rumor
Til you face the cold hard truth
Circumstantial evidence says
Take a closer look
Or mark the book with a note from home
Take the motel phone
Off the hook
Keeping time with the ghosts of lovers
Lost along the way
Another poet in a beat up Ford
With just a little more
Left to say
