La Mar

This day is getting older

In fading light it's beautiful

This wind is blowing colder

And too soon I'll feel it's pull

Still, I took all my chances

Earned myself an even score

Try to learn my lessons well

And I don't have the answers

For those questions anymore

Only love can be both heaven and hell

So sturdy up, sturdy up your heart

For the road is long ahead

I'll be with you even though we're apart

But your road is yours to tread

And so it goes, and so it goes

And so it goes, slows your mind, mind, mind

So it goes, and so it goes, and so it goes, slows your mind, mind, mind

I've grown old on this ocean

Gave her all, my stronger years

Gave my wife my devotion

When she died, the ocean my tears

I've tried to teach you well son

All of everything I knew

Of how to live this life be true

Don't bow your head to no one

And no matter what you do

If you start then see it through

So sturdy up, sturdy up your heart

For the road is long ahead

I'll be with you even though we're apart

But your road is yours to tread

And so it goes, and so it goes

And so it goes, slows your mind, mind, mind

So it goes, and so it goes, and so it goes, slows your mind, mind, mind
