A View for the Blind Lyrics

Sat down on the bench next an old weathered man

Tipped my hat and shared him my thoughts

Said we're stuck on this station, with no destination

Printed on the tickets we bought

He reached for his lighter, looked up on to me said

Hold on let me light this some more

Then he tied all together, said roll with the weather

We're here and we're both counted for

Touching base with the delicate way to lay forth

The wordings and ways to portray

A view for the blind, it sure brings to mind

The extent of our struggles each day

Aside all unrest and the trouble he said

Give praise every breath you inhale

May it otherwise be, the contempt of the free

That untightens your bond to prevail

I nodded admittedly, a train broke the still

And its wind cleared the smoke from his cigar

The price of this trip, the words from his lips

Said is paid for by whom we both are

Touching base with the delicate way to lay forth

The wordings and ways to portray

A view for the blind, it sure brings to mind

The extent of our struggles each day

To the best of ability, we strive for the good

And as such we're all granted an in

Though stuck on this station, with no destination

Our journey is about to begin

And in terms of inaccuracy lead your whole life

Roll her straight down the trails of your heart

To feel comfortable still, to be strong in your will

And stand steady, when things fall apart

Touching base with the delicate way to lay forth

The wordings and ways to portray

A view for the blind, it sure brings to mind

The extent of our struggles each day
