Your passing broke the silence
On that dark October day
The sun was heading for the west
As it did, I heard you say
I set my sail for a gentle breeze
Now I leave this world as it was meant to be
And you
Did you listen
To anything I said?
Did you ever listen to me?
Though now it seems you'll never know
But every lad to a man must grow
'Til winter comes to celebrate
Then proudly chills the bone
When at last they bury me
Into this ground you'll someday see
And you
Did you listen
To anything I said?
Did you ever listen to me?
Though the faces we wear sometimes seldom speaks
From the babe that cries to this grown man's feet
May the hand still write and its heart shape keep
'Til our fathers, sons and daughters agree
