hindsight/foresight
Words and Music by Bob Padgett
May 6, 2006—Stony Brook, NY
©2006 Clamchop Creative Studio

for the dear ones who have been as children to me
and for The Stony Brook School Class of 2006


Tell me, when it’s said and done
Will the mark I leave be one
A legacy, full of grace and truth
And for my Father’s life be proof
Will my life and all I do
Echo something great and true
Will something last from all these years
When I leave them behind with tears

Some days, when my strength is gone
My eyelids fight against the dawn
I think of all the good I could have done
I wonder, were there battles won?
So sorry, for when my actions paled,
Compared to my intentions failed
Do you wish I would longer stay
Though it is time I go away

A Blessing now I speak with love
I call it down from up above
The Freedom to be who you might be
That you would stay forever free
The sweet Peace to live life as you should
And not look back to ask what could
The true Life that will never end
So I know we will meet again
