Stepstone Songtext
von Joel Rafael

I stood on this stepstone when school days was o′er
Long for the time to go by
Now that it's gone, I stand here tonight
And bid this old stepstone goodbye

Goodbye to my stepstone, goodbye to my home
God bless the ones that I leave with a sigh
Fields will be whitening and I will be gone
To ramble this wide world alone


I stand on this stepstone at eventide now
And the wind whistles by with a moan
Now that it′s gone, I stand here tonight
Goodbye to my stepstone and home

Goodbye to my stepstone, goodbye to my home
God bless the ones that I leave with a sigh
Fields will be whitening and I will be gone
To ramble this wide world alone

It's hard to be parted from those that we love
When reversals in fortune have come
The world's strongest heartstrings are broken in plain
With the absence of loved ones and home


Goodbye to my stepstone, goodbye to my home
God bless the ones that I leave with a sigh
Fields will be whitening and I will be gone
To ramble this wide world alone
