Down the well-worn path they travel
To the old dock by the lake
Footsteps crunching on the gravel
One last trip, for old time's sake

He sits quietly in his wheelchair
Midst the sunflowers' yellow glow
But his mind has drifted elsewhere
Lost in thoughts of long ago

The hazy sun goes down to end the day
He slowly shuts his eyes and fades away
