lyrics

Squinting into sunset
Geese cast shadows southbound
Passing lonely boats
Saying we will take this ride
Another day, another time
But knowing that we won't

This was the day, sliding down a slope
This was the day we relied on hope
We learned despite all the plans we're making
We're just here for a ride
Prisoners of time

Labor Day has passed now
More difficult than ever, it's ever felt before
Days keep growing shorter
But that won't be forever
We're promised so much more

These are just days, sliding down a slope
These are the days we can rely on hope
Before our eyes, believing leads to seeing
There will be release for prisoners of time

We passed an empty campsite
Ashes slowly smoldering
The fire just gone out
Saw smoke so stately rising
High up to the heavens
Leaving us no doubt

These are just days, sliding down a slope
These are the days we can rely on hope
Before our eyes, believing leads to seeing
There will be release for prisoners of time
