63 To be 63 somehow In spite of everything Is a wonder but for now I understand the thing That matters is the being I had to go mad to See the reason but I do Soon to be 63 Glad to see me being still Late in my season of Looking back I see how love Says be now so I will Being what it took to find What I had lost before Seeing what it cost to see My way out of my mind I was not but love was then Love was what it was when I got through what I had to That brought me here today Seeing it was love that knew What I was going through Here I am to be again Not always having been But having been around for Many rounds anyway What I found along the way Though wrong way round was me Bound to go around once more So here I am to be 63 now any day Steven Curtis Lance
