Reminiscence's Sorrowful Waters
- Echoes of past memories flow through the musician's mind
- Bringing the warm,fuzzy feelings that reminiscence brings
- Ones of songs, dances, and rhythms all intertwined
- Lyrics and guitar music with the flow of eternal springs
- The presence of imminent death awaits and the goddess of life sighs
- For another soul has moved on
- Taken from the beauteous grasp of life
- Just as life turns to death, dusk turns to dawn
- But before they say their goodbyes, they sing of happiness and content
- Being sick and weak, their voice measures to only a whisper but their message was true
- They wouldn’t let their yearning for their passion to relent
- As their life started anew
- And so death’s grief filled bell rung
- As gentle as the ocean’s tide
- The presence of death herself, the musician was now among
- As she welcomed them, and guided them to the other side
- On top of smoky waters, a ferryman guided near
- And the musician knew they had to pay a toll
- The fear of the unknown built up with every steer
- They were unsure, as their life, death had stole
- They ignored their fearful thought
- And handed the ferryman his coin
- They traveled until they reached what they sought
- And there the musician and their deceased loved ones joined
- In a perpetual state of happiness, warm sun rays
- Both, the musician now met
- In the Elysian Fields, where they spend the rest of their days
