people all arising

in the morning bright and breezy

thinking back to yesterday

when life seemed to be so easy



CHORUS

and is it just imagination

pictures in my mind

just like waiting at some skybound station

for the train to bring us a peace

we never find



the river she flows so silently

never knowing of her death

never saying just what she feels

doesn't matter 'cause I love her none the less



CHORUS



oh lord I'm falling again

sweet Jesus hear me call your name

oh lord I'm falling again

have mercy on me now and then

have mercy on me now and then



hey there goes a soldier boy

well I wonder where he's going

maybe home to see his girl

do you think that she'll be showing?

and is it just his imagination

pictures in his mind

like a- waiting at some skybound station

for the train to bring us a peace we never find



oh lord I'm falling again

sweet Jesus hear me call your name

oh lord I'm falling again

have mercy on me now and then

have mercy on me now and then



time goes by the seasons change

and our lives go quickly by

the time we have is short to us

yet we find it pays to try



CHORUS



oh lord I'm falling again

sweet Jesus hear me call your name

oh lord I'm falling again

have mercy on me now and then

have mercy on me now and then....



have mercy on me now and then
