Just Another Dream

Cozy, deserted shack on a North wood island

Wood fire crackles to life on a gray, rainy day

Escape from the real world, alone you and I

Eyes melt into each others, almost like foreplay

So our lips do the talking, like words never could

Love craved for, longed for, forever it seems

Heart, soul and body, all united, together as one

A wish finally fulfilled of our long-lasting dreams

A battered old radio plays scratchy love songs

We sway to the music, heart beat, to heart beat

Enraptured, captured moments cherished for all time

I dance but don’t feel the floor, I don’t feel my feet

Flickering stub of a candle, sun starts to go down

Exhaled breath carries sweet lover’s words so true

We make love on a nest of quilts thrown on the floor

Our passions unleashed, behind a drafty pine door

Then the dream turns to daylight, I awake all alone

Crestfallen, that we’d never get to share even a day

To hold you, kiss you, to see you in the first morning light

Still, I once held your heart, no one can take that away…
