Late At Night

I wrote this one shortly after my birthday in 2014. Hmmm...... It is a work in process and still needs a bass (when I can borrow one).

Lyrics

Sometimes late at night, when its very still

I can hear the echoes of my past.

The races I have run, all the times I won

And all the times I finished last.

It's a wonder I've made it this far.

Never fallen hard while reaching for my star.

There were times I wasn't sure at all

If I could reach it.

Sometimes late at night when its very clear

And I can see a hundred trillion miles

Everything is right in the visions that appear

The universe looks back at me and smiles.

And its a wonder we're still here.

Heading 'round our star for yet another year.

There were times I wasn't sure at all

That we would would make it.

Our future lies before us, passes by, then slips away.

We trade our time for memories.

We gather some and leave others behind us every day

In lifetimes full of mysteries.

Sometimes late at night when I'm all alone

Old friends come to visit me.

Although some are now gone they all still carry on

Right there in my memory.

And I think about the memories I leave

With others I meet along the way.

Will I come to visit when they wonder

Will I make it?
