Song For Adam
Though Adam was a friend of mine, I did not know him well
He was alone into his distance, he was deep into his well
I could guess what he was laughing at, but I couldn�t really tell
Now the stories told that Adam jumped, but I�m thinking that he fell

Together we went traveling, as we received the call
His destination India, and I had none at all
Oh, I still remember laughing with our backs against the wall
So free of fear, we never thought that one of us might fall

I sit before my only candle, but it�s so little light to find my way
Now the story unfolds before my candle
Which is shorter ev�ry hour, as it reaches for the day
But I feel just like a candle, in a way
I guess I�ll get there, but I wouldn�t say for sure

When we parted we were laughing still, as our good-byes were said
And I never heard from him again, as each our lives we lead
Except for once in someone else�s letter that I read
Until I heard the sudden word that a friend of mine was dead

I sit before my only candle, like a pilgrim sits beside the wave
Now this journey appears before my candle
As a song that�s growing fainter, the harder I play
That I fear before I end will fade away
I guess I�ll get there, but I wouldn�t say for sure

Though Adam was a friend of mine, I did not know him long
And when I stood myself beside him, I never thought I was as strong
Still it seems he stopped his singing in the middle of his song
Well I�m not the one to say I know, but I�m hoping he was wrong

I�m holding out my only candle, but it�s so little light to find my way
Now the story�s been laid beneath my candle
And it�s shorter ev�ry hour, as it reaches for the day
Yes, I feel just like a candle in a way
I hope I get there, but I�d never pray
