Swan Song
Alas, my time has come and gone
And so I shall be moving on
For my first love is calling me
To be who I was meant to be
And though derailed, by choices poor
I've managed still, to reach that door
As I proceed to venture through
I fondly shall remember you
Despite this moment, bittersweet
I'll not regret our chance to meet
Nor any of the times we had
With memories both good and bad
You deserve much better than
What I can give you, as a man
But as an artist, a struggling one
I know my journey's just begun
And though you think this swan has died
I'm merely on the other side
Where I am learning my new song
That's been inside me all along
