Footprint Lyrics

In the twilight of your life
When you feel tired
Your legs go varicose
and your eyes go cataract
Deep in angry yellow sky
keep having that same dream
walking along that long deserted beach
was the Lord by your side
providing sane finanacial advice

Was that beach a dessert?
A cradle or crescent
And investment or an opportune opponent
Did he lay the pipeline
Help design the barricade
Did he adjust the figures to make your science fulfilled?

During the low periods of your life
Did you feel angry, sorrow, or defeat?
Did he lift you up
And stomp out
(Stomp out!)
Irreverent men
Where are the irreverent men?

When you finally looked back
You peeled off that cataract
(Did that footprint catch your eye?)
Did that footprint catch your eye?
From your helicopter in the sky?

Did you cry lord, lift me up
Do not leave me now
For what is the cost of this divine impression?

Would he lift you up, step on anyone?
Would he lift you up, step on anyone?
Would he lift you up, step on anyone
