BEYOND OUR TIME (© John MacLean 2008)
I don't believe in God
I don't believe in ghosts
I do believe we live beyond our time
You won't find me in Heaven
I hope I'm not in Hell
I might be in our daughters' hearts and minds
Chorus
And what will they remember?
What tales will they tell?
Will they recall sudden words of anger
Or draw softer tears from memory's well?
By the end of every day
I try to find a way
To give those girls reason to sleep well
But it's sometimes hard work praised
Sometimes voices raised
And sometimes we need a final bell
Chorus
Don't you hope that as they sleep
Our children only keep
Visions of happiness and light?
Alas it's surely true
The brush at times holds blue
As those dreamers paint memories at night
Chorus
I don't believe in God
I don't believe in ghosts
I do believe we live beyond our time
