"A Mended Rhyme" lyrics - TAD MOROSE

He sat there so idle
Just sat on the ground
I watched as he mumbled
But I heard no sound
I dared not go closer
I dared not at first
But somehow I got there

My son, said the father
I cannot explain
The reason I left you
Has caused me much pain
I dared not come closer
I dared not at first
But somehow I got here

Sometimes I hear them in my mind
Dare I join them now

A mended rhyme
At a preset time
Just join them now
Or lose them forever
It's a silent mime
The final chime
Just join them now

He did not lift his eyes
Just sat there and cried
Now I know the words
I heard him say
I joined him on my knees
And then even I cried
He wiped away my tears
That's when I heard him say

Sometimes I hear them in my mind
Dare I join them now

Amended rhyme
And a preset time
Just join them now

A Mended rhyme
At a preset time
Just join them now
Or lose them forever
It's a silent mime
The final chime
Just join them now
