Tapestry lyrics
My life has been a tapestry of rich and royal hue
An everlasting vision of the everchanging view
A wondrows woven magic in bits of blue and gold
A tapestry to feel and see, impossible to hold
Once amind the soft silver sadnessin the sky
There came a man of fortune, a drifter passing by
He wore a torn and tattered cloth around his leathered hide
And a coat of many colors, yellow-green on either side
He move with some uncertainty, as if he didn t know
Just what he was there for, or where he ought to go
Once he reached for something golden hanging from a tree
And his hand come down empty
Soon within my tapestry along the rutted road
He sat down on a river rock and turned into a toad
It seemed that he had falleninto someone s wicked spell
And I wept to see him suffer, tough I didn t know him well
As I watched in sorrow, there suddenly appeared
Afigure gray and ghostly beneath a flowing beard
In times of deepest darkness, I ve seen him dressed in black
Now my tapestry s unravelling; he s come to take me back
He s came to take me back
