Slow Walking In the Sun Lyrics

Slow Walking in the Sun
Thomas Hien
Saw the future and it looked like today
I saw the rainbow and the colors of gray
I went to heaven and the pearly gate was closed
And made a garden in a place where nothing grows
At the end or the beginning of the line
I just take one step at a time
I left a footprint and the wind blew it away
Till there was nothing but a bit of dust and clay
I said I loved you and I knew I wouldn’t stay
I made a promise to come back again one day
And she told me she that she promise it ain’t mine
I just take one step at a time
Cause tomorrow never seems to come

And yesterday is a distant drum
I take the hours one by one
Slow walking in the sun
Dusty boots rusty nails nowhere bound
There’s a hawk in the sky circles round
In the desert Ives been dreaming that it rains
And that the wings of the hawk turn to flames
With the sun in my eyes for a moment I am blind
I just take one step at a time
Cause tomorrow never seems to come
And yesterday is a distant drum
I take the hours one by one
Slow walking in the sun
If you want the gods to laugh tell them your plans
How can you figure out what you can’t understand
You can have success and be a failure too
And the gods will laugh with you
I don’t look ahead nor do I look behind
I just take one one step at a time
Cause tomorrow never seems to come
And yesterday is a distant drum
I take the hours one by one by one
Slow walking in the sun
