If somewhere down this road of life br Our paths should cross again br I'll know you've come to spread your brand br Of sadness, fear and pain. br br Some years ago, with treachery br You stole my mate away. br The hurt still lingers in my heart. br Until this very day. br br Then, later on you came for me, br With your same dark, dreaded kiss; br And since I've struggled, prayed and sought br The road to inward bliss. br br What lies ahead, God only knows br What is waiting there for me; br I'm bent, I 'm worn, my eyes are dim, br But, my spirit's cancer free.
