I dreamed that I would walk someday
in crimson fields of clover
But that was then before the crash
that made me start all over
And everywhere I turned,
I’d find another bogus savior
I had to leave that crazy town
and all its cruel behavior
I’ll somehow find a future
even though I’m so much older
And meanwhile if you need my help
Just lean here on my shoulder
I headed out to see the West
Those canyons deep and noble
I thought I’d find some peace out there
But life just seemed immobile
Some problems interfered
about the time that things got cozy
I looked around for comfort
For a sunset warm and rosy
I’ll search until I can’t go on
and everything gets colder
And meanwhile if you need my help
Just lean here on my shoulder
Now all my dearest long-time friends
They’re breakin’ down like rubble
I never thought I’d live to see
such sad and painful trouble
Aurora struggles daily
Then there’s Theo’s aged appearance
I’ll think of them as heroes
for their gutsy perseverance
I’ll keep on pushin’ forward
just as long as embers smolder
And meanwhile if you need my help
Just lean here on my shoulder
