Waiting To Cross the Bar
Waiting To Cross The Bar
Waiting to cross the bar
Staring into the bleak darkness
That lies ahead of me
I almost yearn for the cold embrace
That awaits me there
I am forever driven forward
Never knowing what is ahead
Walking blindly into tomorrow
Hoping that there is something
Or someone to offer
A little peace and comfort
Fearing that all there is here
Is nothing but the same emptiness
And loneliness that has been my life
So I walk blindly on
Waiting to cross he bar
