Lyrics

WADE'S WATCH

Overlooking a canyon
Where the ocean meets the land
Feeling higher than the sun
Stronger than the waves pounding the sand
Sitting on a bench made in memory of Wade
Inscribed upon a plaque,
The words say ?Wades?s Watch?
I'm keeping Wade's Watch,
because Wade could not be here
But I think he wouldn?t mind
I think he?s not the jealous kind
I?m keeping Wade?s watch,
because Wade could not be here

It?s true, we never met
The one named Wade and me
Maybe he is watching, and maybe he?s finally free
Where once there was a man,
now there is a bench
And the waves keeps pounding on
Life is strange when suddenly it all makes sense
I?m keeping Wade?s Watch...(chorus)

He?s passed on to the other side
where there?s nothing left to hide
Up in the clouds, maybe looking down
Tell me, Wade, how does life all look now?

I still don't know what took his life, what got him in the end
A bullet, a bottle, an accident ? or the loss of an old friend
But none of that really matters now
What's done is done and past
The earth and sky and waves and sun ?
they?ll go on long after our last dance
I?m keeping Wade?s Watch...(chorus)
