JUST LOOKING FOR A SIGN

JUST LOOKING FOR A SIGN

Everyone has their gods that keeps them on a path.

If they veer off this road they are told to expect his wrath.

Which god is right, I just can’t make up my mind.

I’m not asking for much . . . I’m just looking for a sign.

People say there is a heaven and a hell.

I don’t know if there’s a heaven, but hell, I know it well.

If this is all there is, then life’s end would be so unkind.

I want to know if death is a new journey . . . I’m just looking for a sign.

One day doing something is wrong and the next day it’s right.

One page says we should turn the other cheek and another says we should stand and fight.

Some things we are meant to know and to other’s we are blind.

What’s right and what’s wrong . . . I’m just looking for a sign.

There are things in your mind that you know to be true.

There are things in my mind that are different from you.

I don’t believe in your truth and you don’t believe in mine.

I want to know the real truth . . . so I’m just looking for a sign.

Some say they’ve seen ghost from the past.

Some ghosts just linger and some have a task.

Some come back just to say they’re fine.

I’ve never seen anything . . . I’m just looking for a sign.

I know there’s a direction that’s right and a direction that’s wrong.

Sometimes you can find your way in the words of an old song.

I want to know the truth about what happens at the end of our time.

The answers out there somewhere . . . I’m just looking for a sign.

I found a love that seems so right.

I found someone to hold me all through the night.

I have someone that makes the chaos of life rhyme.

Is this love right or is this love wrong . . . I’m just looking for a sign.

I think maybe we’re just the fruit of the vine.

So I’m sitting here sipping on a glass of wine.

As the length to the day and the spirits of my glass begin to intertwine,

I look through my blurry eyes and it all becomes clear . . . I think I see a sign.
