paul provenza - men at forty lyrics

Loading...

men at forty
learn to close softly
the doors to rooms they will not be
coming back to

at rest on a stair landing
they feel it
moving beneath them now like the deck of a ship
though the swell is gentle

and deep in mirrors
they rediscover
the face of the boy as he practices trying
his father’s tie there in secret

and the face of that father
still warm with the mystery of lather
they are more fathers than sons thеmselves now
something is filling thеm, something

that is like the twilight sound
of the crickets, immense
filling the woods at the foot of the slope
behind their mortgaged houses
