Jessi Colter Story To Tell (The Preface) Lyrics

there is a tear, old man

on your face and your hands are shaking

is it fear, old man

or just a trace of hatred awakening?

you've a story to tell

and you tell it so well

but the story is not in the lines on a page,

the story is in the lines on your face

this is the world, old man

for which your worked and loved with passion

a cultured pearl, old man

that your heart and hands helped to fashion

they want to change your way of life

a life you thought was right

all you've held dear since birth, they'll rearrange

but I don't think you're going to live to see the change

(ORCHESTRAL ENDING)
