Album: Untying the Not (2003)
Play Video
  • Through my senses, I'm reliving childhood memories from my past

    But, in an instant it is over, fading quickly from my mind

    In the photo with piano, I see a man whose time has gone

    I knew him only for a moment, but in his spirit I live on

    What I was I am
    It all comes 'round again
    And who I used to be
    Is still a part of me

    An early morning, cold December, a family gathered all around

    Taken back what I was given, open grave site, frozen ground

    I see my hands, they are my father's, time has worn my fingers thin

    Humor, laughter, ever after, my heart still remembers him

    What I was I am
    It all comes 'round again
    Who he used to be
    Is still a part of me

    All the moments seldom last
    And memories they fade so fast
    I turn away and life has passed

    Who Am I? Publisher: Z-TOWN MUSIC
