Oh my goodness
What is the way
Down the path
Or the road
Far, far away?
My heart doesn’t know
My head can’t see
Yet the decision
Must come
From only me.

An old soul once told me
‘Be kind, gentle and above all full of courtesy’.
Makes no difference that old soul you see
Was a dog I knew
Oh, just so briefly.

You don’t know what I know
You don’t feel what I feel
You don’t see what I see
You can’t hear what I hear
Because
You are not and never will be me.
