Kaleidoscope

A song lyric

                   Kaleidoscope



It was a holiday parade,

They have one every year.

Just another lame excuse

To sell hot dogs and cold beer.

I was looking through a Kaleidoscope

At the bits of broken glass.

Made me stop and wonder

And compare it with our past.



Little bits and pieces,

That's all we have of time.

Little bits and pieces,

Like songs that never rhyme.

Broken shards of memories,

Treasures from the past.

Little bits and pieces,

Like bits of broken glass.



I wondered what you're doing

As the marching band passed by.

It was just a year tomorrow

Since the day you said, "Goodbye."

Picked up the phone, then stopped myself.

No sense dredging up the past.

I'll just keep these tiny pieces,

And bits of broken glass.

I'll just keep these tiny pieces

And bits of broken glass.
