Thoughts of Natalia
Thoughts of Natalia come to haunt my mind when i'm dreamingThe ghost of her touch, comes to vist me in the night while I am sleeping
I recognize her face, I'm dreaming, but always start to weeping
She touches my soul with her smile,
And she holds my hand after awhile,
Her eyes sparkle like jewels on the nile, but then Natalia has gone
In the park where musicians play, you had never heard the Beatles, so they teased you
We spent the night, just the two of us, lounging on your couch continuously listening to Hey Jude
You read your Poetry and I did the same,
It was but one more link in our chain,
So when did it all run down the drain?
Now that you're gone, my memories of us are all that remain
I run from the daylight, it is hot on my heels, I must find her
She loved me once, I yelled it out loud to remind her
Like a Siren she answers my call,
Seductively she crawls up the wall,
Following her i'm beginning to fall,
As my consciousness stalls
My heart dangles from your keychain, and you just go and toss it upon your table
You're so unfair, i'm not broken, you can't lock our love up inside of your stable
The silent wallflower has returned,
For my love, is this what I have earned?
Do you remember the way that I learned,
You were never to return?
The ghost of antiquity is the watchman to the remnants of your memory
It seems just like yesterday, but our love resides in the halls of ancient history
Did you receive the letter that I did not write?
Would I have been able to show you the light,
Had I just answered the phone on that night?
This question burns like coal in my soul, as my sadness ignites
"I'm going to California, I love you, but i'm waiting for the next train"
I still hear the echo of your voice, crying out from inside the machine
Like a knife through my back I recall,
The Christmas Parties Belle of the Ball,
Chasing your memory down the hall,
Remember the time we made love in the stall of the residence hall?
Kissing your lips, I can still taste the sweetness of your nectar
The spirit of your love has left, and now i'm being stalked by the vision of it's specter
Getting drunk on our Strawberry wine,
Your legs slowly entwined within mine,
Curling up towards my thigh like a vine,
You had better watch out, be forewarned, because ya know Karma is always on time
So much time has gone, without a word, you live your life so mysteriously
If I had the chance, i'd take you back, but then again you like to love so dangerously
The way it ended I still regret,
Given the chance, I would re-live the day we met
Your friend Sophia said she ran into you last week, standing outside of the galleria in a pair of black fishnets
And still to this day, when i'm dreaming, I remain haunted by these thoughts of Natalia
