The Watcher

Is there someone up there watching us Someone we can not see Somewhere up there looking down Down on you and me Could it be my grandmother Who said she loved me so I sat there and watched her 'Til she let her last breath go Is she up in heaven looking down on me Watching as I grow bigger Than I was when I was three Is there someone up there watching us Someone we can not see Someone up there looking down Down on you and me Could it be there's aliens From another world Watching us from up above Our lives for them unfurled Are they up there mocking us And how we live our lives Are they scared of what they witness with unbelieving eyes But until one fateful day We will never know That day if it ever comes When I see a UFO Is there something up there watching us Something we can not see Something up there looking down Down on you and me Could it be there's someone Watching us each day The father of humanity To him each night we pray Does he have a plan for us Some destiny in mind Is there some final destination For all of human kind Did he send his only son To die so we may live Is it to this omnipotent being To whom our souls we give Is he up there keeping track Of all of our deeds I guess I'll never know 'Til on my Death's breath I feed Is there someone up there watching us Someone we can not see I guess we will never know So I'll just let it be Written March 7th, 2002 © on Mar 06 2002 10:25 PM PST   10 • 0
