Watercolour Ponies - Wayne Watson[00:00:04]
There are watercolour ponies[00:00:41]
On my refrigerator door[00:00:45]
And the shape of something I don't really recognize[00:00:51]
Brushed with careful little fingers[00:01:00]
And put proudly on display[00:01:04]
A reminded to us all of how time flies[00:01:10]
Seems an endless mound of laundry[00:01:24]
And a stairway laced with toys[00:01:29]
Gives a blow by blow reminder of the war[00:01:33]
That we fight for their well-being[00:01:43]
For their greater understanding[00:01:47]
To impart a holy reverence for the Lord[00:01:52]
But baby what will we do[00:02:02]
When it comes back to me and you[00:02:06]
They look a little less like little boys every day[00:02:12]
Oh the pleasure of watchin' the children growin'[00:02:21]
Is mixed with a bitter cup[00:02:26]
Of knowin' the watercolour ponies[00:02:29]
Will one day ride away[00:02:35]
And the vision can get so narrow[00:02:45]
As you view thru your tiny world[00:02:49]
And little victories can go by with no applause[00:02:54]
But in the greater evaluation[00:03:03]
As they fly from your nest of love[00:03:08]
May they mount up with wings as eagles for His cause[00:03:13]
But baby what will we do[00:03:27]
When it comes back to me and you[00:03:33]
They look a little less like little boys every day[00:03:37]
Oh the pleasure of watchin' the children growin'[00:03:46]
Is mixed with a bitter cup[00:03:52]
Of knowin' the watercolour ponies[00:03:55]
Will one day ride away[00:04:01]
