Quiet Softness
In the quiet softness of the morning I lay, thinking
Drinking in the vision of you in my vanished dreams
That warmed me through the still, lonely night
Fight thoughts of time spent without you to no avail
Derail aspirations and desires? I think not, only delay
The day our lives are joined, coupled beyond weekends
That satisfy and at once wound our love’s desire
Conspire to bring schemes into our minds to make it so
Though distance is our enemy, it is what we’ve been dealt
Gestalt becomes our friend, bringing us together, united
In thoughts never imagined to be our own, now ours
Powers us to get through the day, brings us again to hope
Elope, your heart with mine to a special place to dream
Steam glistens off the silky lake, we bathe together enrapt
Sharing quiet moments alone, floating as one, content
Torment in being apart soon vanquished, at least for now
How do we make these dreams come true? Me and you
Slay distance in it’s fiery tracks, banish loneliness forever
From our door? Meantime, your voice rings in my head
My bed comforts me knowing I'll again dream of you soon
Drinking in the vision of you in my vanished dreams
That warmed me through the still, lonely night
Fight thoughts of time spent without you to no avail
Derail aspirations and desires? I think not, only delay
The day our lives are joined, coupled beyond weekends
That satisfy and at once wound our love’s desire
Conspire to bring schemes into our minds to make it so
Though distance is our enemy, it is what we’ve been dealt
Gestalt becomes our friend, bringing us together, united
In thoughts never imagined to be our own, now ours
Powers us to get through the day, brings us again to hope
Elope, your heart with mine to a special place to dream
Steam glistens off the silky lake, we bathe together enrapt
Sharing quiet moments alone, floating as one, content
Torment in being apart soon vanquished, at least for now
How do we make these dreams come true? Me and you
Slay distance in it’s fiery tracks, banish loneliness forever
From our door? Meantime, your voice rings in my head
My bed comforts me knowing I'll again dream of you soon
