After All Is Said and Done

Can’t remember when we last
Took the time to see a sunset
Fleeting moments in your dreams
Silhouettes and fading fragments

Of a past somewhere behind
Reminds you of what you once wanted

Once you felt you found a way
Left your old ambitions
By the lakebed

Round each corner you will see
That there’s a new horizon
And it’s all about you and me
And what we can do that matters

As the waves come and go
Fads vanish while underneath the snow
Lies the grass ready to grow

After all is said and done
