11. A HOLE AT THE EDGE OF TIME
(Music & Lyric by Louis Rosen)

Mother’s in the kitchen
Daddy mows the lawn
Brother’s with his friends after school
There’s my Grandma Fanny
There’s my Cousin Jim
Now we’re all at Uncle Ted’s pool

Though it can’t be expressed in reason or rhyme
There’s a hole at the edge of time
There’s no road you can take
No mountain to climb
Just a hole at the edge of time

There’s my Grandpa Louie
Holding out his hand
We never got to meet until now
All those things that happened
All our years on Earth
Are happening all at once here somehow

Though it can’t be expressed in reason or rhyme
There’s a hole at the edge of time
There’s no map you can draw
No bell that will chime
Just a hole at the edge of time

There’s a world between sleep and awakening
When visions seem true as can be
There are creatures on the ceiling
Spirits in the dark
I hear my father calling to me
My mother’s voice calling to me

Many are the stories
We’re taught when we are young
Some we don’t believe, some we do
Some believe in magic
Other’s trust in fate
Some believe that wishes come true

Though it can’t be expressed in
Reason or rhyme
There’s a hole at the edge of time
There’s no road you can take
No mountain to climb
Just a hole at the edge of time
There’s no road you can take
No mountain to climb
Just a hole,
A hole at the edge of time
