The Carleton Suite Hotel
Mark Guebert
I was walking by myself that night
In Ottawa
And I didn’t know a soul in sight
But on I went
I saw a man play guitar
And made two friends at the bar
I was searching for that golden light
That’s in all of us
How could I not see?
Now it’s clear to me
That we all
Are a part
Of each other cause
That’s the way
We were made
We can’t escape our fate
And we’ll see each other soon
I was walking by myself that day
In Victoria
And I couldn’t find the words to say
How long it felt
Since I last saw my dad
Or went downtown to see a band
And I am hoping that we find a way
To be whole again
How could I not see?
Now it’s clear to me
That we all
Are a part
Of each other cause
That’s the way
We were made
We can’t escape our fate
And we’ll see each other soon
