Lyrics Tapestry - Alice Babs
My
life
has
been
a
tapestry
of
rich
and
royal
hue,
An
everlasting
vision
of
the
ever-changing
view.
A
wondrous
woven
magic
in
bits
of
blue
and
gold
A
tapestry
to
feel
and
see,
impossible
to
hold.
Once,
amid
the
soft,
silver
sadness
in
the
sky,
There
came
a
man
of
fortune,
a
drifter
passing
by.
He
wore
a
torn
and
tattered
cloth
around
his
leathered
hide,
And
a
coat
of
many
colors,
yellow,
green
on
either
side.
He
moved
with
some
uncertainty,
as
if
he
didn't
know
Just
what
he
was
there
for,
or
where
he
ought
to
go.
Once
he
reached
for
something
golden,
hanging
from
a
tree,
And
his
hand
came
down
empty.
Soon
within
my
tapestry,
along
the
rutted
road,
He
sat
down
on
a
river
rock
and
turned
into
a
toad.
It
seemed
that
he
had
fallen
into
someone's
wicked
spell,
And
I
wept
to
see
him
suffer,
though
I
didn't
know
him
well.
As
I
watched
in
sorrow,
there
suddenly
appeared
A
figure,
gray
and
ghostly,
beneath
a
flowing
beard.
In
times
of
deepest
darkness,
I've
seen
him
dressed
in
black.
Now
my
tapestry's
unraveling;
he's
come
to
take
me
back.
He's
come
to
take
me
back.
