Grampfather - Laugh Lines

Through all the years
We have laughed and cried
We will collect the tears
Before we die
It is written
Clear upon your face
The sheer divide
Between space and time
You can't hide
The child inside
The lines by your eyes
They don't lie
And though we may
Lose our sight
What remains unchanged
Is that ardent inner light
There are past lives
In your laugh lines
That are revived
By your smiling eyes
Despite the divide
Between space and time
The child inside
Is quite alive
But what I can see
And what I construe
Says more about me
Than it does about you
And though we may
Be deprived of our sight
What remains unchanged
Is that ardent inner light
There are past lives
Written in your laugh lines
It's true
And you know it, too
All is revived
By your smiling eyes
It's good
And it's all inside you
You cannot hide
The child inside
The lines by your eyes
They do not lie
We laugh and cry
We live and die
But together we ride
Through low and high
There are past lives
In your laugh lines
It's true
And you know it, too
All is revived
By your smiling eyes
It's good
And it's all inside you
