Pilgrim
Aaah aaah aaah aaah
Aaah aaah aaah ah
A pilgrim at the grey of dawn
Leaving in the mist of morning
On his journey of goodness
Heaven sent, God blessed.
Pilgrim laughing at the world,
Spreading joy at the touch of his hand,
Wiping out all the misery,
Making love and history.
…………………………....
Aaah aaah aaah aaah
Aaah aaah aaah ah
Those of us who don't know war,
We shouldn't try to make it.
'Cause so many did and even more died,
Do you think you could take it?
'Cause Love lies waiting
…at our back door,
Such a beautiful matter of fact.
Life's like an apple with love as the core
And I'll tell you 'bout that.
…………………………….
Just a man in my prime
Love was there but I had no time.
I was cheered and adored
And I thought fame was all the world.
Battles won and victory cheers.
Were the sounds I'd heard for years?
But the woman I really loved
Was losing me to all this blood.
I only knew I had to win
And build a world where I was king.
But leaders come and leaders go,
And that's the truth I came to know.
Love or war I could not choose
And so both I had to lose.
(Byron/Hensley)
