This may be the last   that you hear   for a long time      because my mind just went blank   when i saw   what the years had held   how the pieces fell      and everything that you said   that you'd do   i can see was time well spent   how i wish the same were true   those minor works i put you through      if we'd gone through this   and i caught   just a fleeting glimpse      well i'd run like a dog   on the scent   of what could have been   of what i've been doing      and everything that you said   that you'd do   i can see was time well spent   how i wish the same were true   those minor works i put you through      and i heard you wrestling   for a spot   next to Jacob   or Elijah    reveal   reveal yourself   to me and no-one else   to me and no-one else
