Spend days distracted
With music, movies, friends
The daily workload

Spend nights distracted
With the same simple pleasures
That buzz of your life

Things go by like that
You think “This is how it is,
This is my life now”

Watch the boys at play
With their boundless energy
Enthusiasm

And the days go by
And the nights go by as well
Sunday you clean up

As you work, you pause
And remember a soft word
Or a tender place

That one special thing
Brings everything back around
With tears in your eyes.
