James Dean Cotton - Faces on the Wall Lyrics

I went down to say goodbye to Annie today
But she didn't meet me at the door
There were people around, throwing their stories all down
But all I could hear was wheels upon the floor

The faces on the wall told it all
'Cause in every one you were standing tall
Couldn't see it all, but I can still recall
The faces on the wall

Took a 20 year run, and you're finally done
In a garden that bloomed for a day
People loved you with pride
In an old school vibe
A still life living for the day

The faces on the wall told it all
'Cause in every one you were standing tall
Didn't know it all, but I can still recall
The faces on the wall
The faces on the wall

And the dust will settle on the windowsill
Leaves come down in the fall
People and homes, everybody's on loan
And goes sailing out to sea, and that's all

Last time I saw you alive
It was mid oh-one-five
But you let me help you to the door
Of the 122. You were pushing on through
And all I could hear was your feet upon the floor

The faces on the wall told it all
'Cause in every one you were standing tall
Didn't know it all, but I can still recall
The faces on the wall
The faces on the wall
The faces on the wall
