Gypsy Time (Part 2)

Nothing is promised to those whose eyes
Are fixed
On the promise of those who can’t cry

And the time that we got is the time we steal
For now
It’s time we try to make real

So his ink stained hands
Couldn’t get it all down in the book

And the history teacher
Couldn’t get him off the hook

That we honestly couldn’t get honest
‘Bout it all beneath

In gypsy time
Before we knew how to see

In gypsy time
Before we could breathe

The news came hard and it came real dear
We thought
We better get it while he’s still here

Take another step take the leap out loud
Step down
Step away from the crowd

So getting it right and
Losing it all in one day

The third one in started
Following what they say
The stock broker’s doctor
Told us ‘bout our brother’s deal

In gypsy time
Before we knew how to feel

In gypsy time
Before it got real

Now the promise is given to those whose eyes
Are fixed
On the promise of those who try

And the time that we get is a gift of Grace
For all time
Given in that place

So his ink stained hands
Finally wrote the final page

Had his final say
And just walked off the stage

And you’d honestly said
All the things that you had to say

In gypsy time
For just one more day

In gypsy time
We only had the day

In gypsy time
Just for today
