SAVE ME SOME DAYLIGHT
music and lyrics--B. Buoncuore
Help me out
Save me some daylight
Beyond and about
Turn on the night light
The skin of my teeth
Or the sweat of my brow
The spirit with in me
With the why and the how
(Chorus):
Our dreams and hopes
Are filled with choices
Filling our nights
With a chorus of voices.
Dreams, that they breathe
Life into hope
The essence of time
And a moment to cope.
Assume the best
But expect the worst
A lifetime of caution
A hunger or thirst.
An idea to embrace
Or to let loose
Frustration, save face
Acute or obtuse
(chorus repeat)
*Another year has gone
And it’s been put to the test
The further we get along
We put it to rest
This solid ground where I stand
It crumbles around
(chorus repeat)
The stairs and the cornflakes
And the sour milk
This wind is your skin
It’s soft just like silk
(repeat *)
Dedicated to Father Joe Foster of St. Francis Assisi in Medford, MA USA
