For the song “Empty Handed” by my band, The Professors:
1). There was a time,
and a place
Full of hope for the
human race
But time moves forward
and moves on
because of that we try to
right the wrongs
Today doesn’t care what you bring on,
it’s all about the coming dawn,
so join with me and we’ll
go away
get ourselves out of this
wretched place
(chorus)
2). I’m at your will for
your instruction
Gotta get away from
this destruction
So now we’re running
and I fly
Leaving this world I
have to say goodbye
The sky calls to me and I make my way
“Don’t ever forget me” I heard you say
Now that I’m going
So hard to leave
I need you to wait for
me and believe
(chorus)
chorus). I went to the ends of the earth, just for your love.
And I spread my wings, like the wings of a dove.
But then I came home to my nest and landed.
Then I came home, EMPTY HANDED!
