Smoke and Mirrors

When I was a boy all the books I read I followed like a blind man To heed the words my father said Those golden summers fade into night, words become a dream The echoes of my childhood and where the path is winding May God bless you, keep you safe from all harm I stand by you always Time and motion hands touch Lips find a way to heaven on high Watch the children play, the child becomes a man And all the tangled webs we weave You swear it as we live and breath We stay together death until you part Winner takes the prize The futures at your finger tips, right before your eyes No more sorrow (smoke and mirrors) No more nights with no end (I really learned a lot, smoke and mirrors) I see my tomorrows And nothing from nothing And ashes to ashes they say All the more that you reach out The more that it runs away (Smoke and mirrors) No more goodbyes (That's all I ever got, smoke and mirrors) No lies, you find your way there (She show me what she's got, smoke and mirrors) Heaven on high May god bless you keep you safe from all harm I stand by you always Time and motion (Smoke and mirrors) Hands touch, lips find a way to (That's all I ever got, smoke and mirrors) Heaven on high No more sorrow (I really learned a lot, smoke and mirrors) No more nights with no end (She show me what she's got, smoke and mirrors) I rise or I fall No more goodbyes (She really makes me hot, smoke and mirrors) No lies, you find a way there Heaven on high
