Lyrics for Great Provider

You and I have been through this before I owe you my whole life, nothing more I never said that I liked you the most You're my father, I'm your son - who's the Holy Ghost? Where does the time go when it's not around here? (I don't know) Here we stand at the edge of the drive I'm just waiting for my ride to arrive I wait to see if you've any last words We pulled away, I called your name - I don't think you heard Where does the time go when it's not around here? (I don't know) Where does the time go when it's not around here? You and I never shared all that much When I leave, I'll be all right; I'll keep in touch As your road narrows, so mine grows wider As I leave, I turn and wave to the Great Provider
