Lyrics

Where is the line between fact and fiction?
The one we crossed when it was over
Some take the books, and some take the high road
Me, I just took what I can carry
I went out west where I could see the mountains
I thought I'd stay until the day I left
And all those things, that I thought were so precious
You know I left them in a box by the Goodwill bin
And the lines on the page may soften with age
But the picture's someone I've seen
And they say that the muse is the only thing you lose
But me, I'm still figure drawing
I had a friend, I never thought about him dying
Until one night I got a call that he had
John spoke softly but the world was exploding
I fell to my knees, haven't gotten up since
The rains came and they filled up the valley
The dam burst and it took our little home
The wife and I we went back to the ruins
Like servants of old in the last days of Rome
  We brought you home, like I can't even believe it
I blinked my eyes, and you were already ten
Went to bed and now you're leaving for college
What a wonder it is! Just how lucky I've been
