after fourteen years

light shimmers on the waves in calmest mode

across the water the high bluff stands clear

this is the turning of a long hard road

lights on the bridge send out their hidden code

the structure seems to float in the bright air

light shimmers on the waves in calmest mode

each lets the years our memories corrode

and burns the dark to grey with pain and care

this is the turning of a long hard road

far to the east night's fallen and time's slowed

but where i sit the day and sun are fair

light shimmers on the waves in calmest mode

each change of life is a short episode

in what we learn and what we have to share

this is the turning of a long hard road

back to the hills and to the normal load

we joke but when we do it's on the square

ight shimmers on the waves in calmest mode

this is the turning of a long hard road
