THE WIDER VIEW (VERSION 4)

Lyrics (Other version lyrics are in parenthesis) 

My life my life is ticking down (out time)
It’s not what I would choose
I hear your saddened sound
Of all YOU THINK YOU'll lose (of all that you might lose)
Before I leave this life
I HAVE THIS WISH FOR YOU (I give this gift for you)
THE (IN) hope that you will see The Wider View

ONLY (will you) see the wider view
And paint the way with me (there's a big pitcher to see)
Your canvas won't be quite so blue
If you don't make it be 
THE COLORS that we've known (the colors are unknown)
MEAN YOU won't paint alone (but you won't paint alone)
WHEN YOU chose to see the wider view (if you choose to see the wider view)

It's just a part of life (leaves) just a part of life)
We’re only here a while
We enjoyed the best of everything
MADE THE MOST OF EVERY MILE (always tried to smile)
And all the joyous times
You painted on my face
We made each other better with our grace (twas you who made me better with your grace)

 
REPEAT CHORUS 

Soon I will be gone
One last song to sing (THIS ONE LAST SONG I SING)
And maybe that’s the way
TO GIVE BACK everything
and I PRAY that YOU'LL REMEMBER THAT WHAT I SAY IS TRUE (hope that you'll remember...)
And you will see me in your wider view.

REPEAT CHORUS

Yes OUR colors are unknown
But we don't paint alone 
When we choose to see the wider view. 
The wider view
