lyrics

I've traveled so far from where I first drew breath
All the roads I've been down and a thousand times more
I try not to linger the places I've been
"I come with the dust and I'm gone with the wind"

I've passed through the forest, I've covered the plain
My chest has been loved and burdened with pain
I've seen desert sunrises cascading west
But somehow, you're the one I remember the best

So hey, George Josinsky I wrote you a song
Cause your mother, and brother, and sister are gone
And I'm singing it now cause I can't take the shame
That soon no one left will remember your name

But don't worry, George, I remember you said
That you won't need my sympathies after you're dead
To save them for someone who's stuck in between
There's not many men who have seen what you've seen

The future's uncertain, the past is a mess
So I drink to tomorrow, and hope for the best
And here's to the hands and the health of the hearts
Who's golden shine fades but never departs
