Life of a country song
W. K. Hayes
Life of a country song
One little candle burns softly in the night
Calling forth the soft gently glow of its light
Flickering as though it danced to an unheard song
Moving about wildly until the candle is gone
One little star burns so brightly in the night
Calling forth the power to shine so bright
Flickering like a candle or is that wrong?
Moving about quietly floating all alone
One little thought crawls across the mind
Calling forth the words in the mind’s sight
Flickering as a passing thought not known
Moving about wildly to quietly move along
One little bird flies alone in the sky
Calling forth with a song as it flies so high
Flickering wings flap feverishly in even tone
Moving about the sky with its Lover’s Song
One little love letter to make the heart sigh
Calling for the emotions that feel so right
Flickering, fading hope while standing alone
Moving about the life of a country song
