Or were we meant to be All of our lives In love and harmony All of our lives So now take my hand Come hold me closely As near as you can Believe in all that we could be And all that we have been And all that we are Everyday seems summertime The rivers flow with wine And when you were here with me I wish we'd stayed that day forever Oh my hopes are as the leaves upon the water... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ @SONG: Me and Virgil Ma would never say what happened And we knew better than push too hard We knew we had all the chores to tend to Like fixing fences and helping her Washing dishes and making coffee Me and Virgil would chop some wood But we'd stop our swinging Just to listen to her crying It didn't sound too good I can remember too well But we never thought to pay much heed We learned to live life the best we could But then one day pa up and left us High and dry without a word Seemed a pity My ma was pretty But I soon learned life ain't that way And I can remember hearing her weeping While we were sleeping next to her I can remember I'll never forgive and I'll never forget 'Cos pa you broke her heart Oh pa you broke her heart You broke her heart Oh pa you broke her heart Well the years rolled by And 'fore we knew it Our sister got married and moved out west I stayed with ma 'cos I couldn't desert her I knew it would hurt her to be alone So we pulled tighter Said we'd try to make things easy And raise a smile But as the night came We'd hear her crying Praying for pa to come back again I can remember I'll never forgive him and I'll never forget 'Cos pa you broke her heart Oh pa you broke her heart And then the winter came I'd never known it colder Oh it seemed the worst in years And the night she died I swear I saw her smiling Saying I was a big boy now no tears So I packed up all we had and Virgil got the horses And we paid our last respects and gave the whip a crack Oh it seemed a big bad world we were riding into Me and Virgil both agreed We best head off and don't look back Nothing but desert all around Oh it made me wonder Lord it's hard to carry on When you're sick with hunger Weeks and months of sleeping rough Keeping clear of danger Seems million miles from anywhere I prayed to my God to change it You'd best keep your head but don't look back Well me and Virgil we beat the desert Riding fast and riding hard We hit the city the past behind us And we raised some hell we had some fun But real soon I met a lady oh so pretty And oh so fine And 'fore too long I found myself married With a home of my own and a blue eyed son And 'til this day I can hear ma saying to me You're a big boy now ----------------------------------------------------------------------- @SONG: Evidence of Autumn The girl from all those songs Who made everything feel right She came in like an angel Into your lonely life And filled your world with light Oh and everybody told you you're oh so lucky Curtains part revealing a country scene Clothed in green and brown Evidence of Autumn And leaves of red On a winding lane and biway Walking on that road is a certain girl And all the world in one Guaranteed to move you and turn your head When all's been said and done The girl from all those songs... The night is clear but cool And maybe dawn is breaking as you turn to find the gun And then you see the note And though you cannot believe it And you think you'll go insane But that was many years ago And thought the pain is dim A something still remains Though you hardly can recall Her face unfolds Her memory lingers on Oh she made everything feel right She came in like an angel Into your lonely life And filled your world with light Oh and everybody told you you're oh so lucky -------------------------------------------------------------------- @SONG: Open Door I see your smiling face By the open door There's the morning light Shining in your hair and in your eyes And just a little way behind that smile of yours I see another one oh so far away If only for one second I could hold you close to me When the Master calls for me again There's nothing I can say or I can do Goodbye my love Time has come to say farewell I hear the call again Goodbye to the world I've shouted for so long But there's so much my love That I can never say And in a little while In a little while There's nothing left to say As the years go by And I have not returned And the night has come Fallen all around If you count the stars You'll know how many have gone out And when the Master calls for me again There's nothing that I can say Or I can do Stand in the sun Shut your eyes and feel the world Is changing every day Goodbye my love Each day will seem so long There's so much I feel That I can never say I can't see you I can't feel you anymore I'm just a memory of that open door
