All I need
All I need is a spot
To put my cot
At the end of each day
As I go along my way
Nowhere I need to go
So my travels are slow
No car
So I do not get that far
I do not mind
When I left life behind
Together days started to flow
Sometimes days pass so slow
At times too fast
A day never last
Too soon become part the past
My dog and I
Watching life go by
Moving towards , I do not know
Just watching the show
As I pass by
I see how all the yesterdays really did fly
So many times have the sun passed through the sky
Waiting for a tomorrow that never comes to be
The future says, just wait and see
Someday
Along my way
I wish for a home
I'm getting to old to always roam
Where I lay my head
I could someday wake up dead
So I enjoy all I get to see
All the Beauty there be
Each day
I pray
Lead me towards home plate
Past all the hate
I accept this kind of fate
Down this road
I carry a heavy load
At the end I will finally get to rest
When I pass this test
I become part of the past
Then I am welcomed home at last
