same  old story  came and went
gone  like the words it wasted,  and told as the  time it spent
 like the ones  passing by all forgotten  for why or what  they meant
 just a blank  page that still remains,  and a lasting  hymn
 
gone,  she's gone,  her wind has blown
further  away from the winters  that made her feel so  alone
 and all  she remembers of distant  Decembers chilled  to the bone
 can just fade  like the old false loves
 for she hears a tune  calling like a holy morning song
 say my peace,  say my glory,  say my love  say my song
 say my peace,  say my glory,  say my love  said my so  o nnng
where  oh where  did your songbird fly
effortlessly  on the seven  great seas and the wailing  sky
 is she sleeping  or alone and weeping and wondering  why
 through the silence  a song can be born and survive
 but somehwere she hears that sweet reprise
 calling like a long lost love with sleep upon his weary eyes
 and complete disregard for the longwinded hardships and gone goodbyes
 for the love that remains is clear as that lasting hymn
 singin like a holy morning song
just  like the morning bells  tolling
 and the dreams  that were restlesssly  stolen
 and the light  still shining
 on the souls  that were broken before
 and a voice is calling
calling  them  home,  calling them home
 after all the tides have tamed
 silences broken and the stories half spoken but yet unnamed
 i'll be painfully sure of the ones that endure and are unashamed
 as the breath of a lasting hymn so soft and true and mercifully
 calling back again
 finger pickin' good)

 Great tune ... enjoy ...
