And if your'e taking a walk through the garden of life What do you think you expect you would see? Just like a mirror reflecting the moves of your life And in the river reflections of me Just for a second a glimpse of my father I see And in a movement he becons to me And in a moment the mermories are all that remain And all the wounds are reopening again
And as you look all around at the world in dismay What do you see, do you think we have learned Not if you're takin a look at the war-torn affray Out in the streets where the babies are burned
There are times when I feel I'm afraid for the world There are time I'm ashamed of us all When your floating on all the emotion you feel And reflecting the good and the bad Will we ever know what the answer to real life is? Can you really tell me what life is? Maybe all the things that you know that are precious to you Could be swept away by fate's own hand
When you think that we've used all our chances And the chance to make everything right Keep on making the same old mistakes Makes untipping the balance so easy When we're living our lives on the edge Say a prayer on the book of the dead
