I’ll watch the sky tonight and think of where I’d like to
be. I’ll gaze upon the stars, as stray moonlit clouds drift
high above like dreams.

Steady breezes blow the leaves tonight, as they scrape
and rub against each other, creating the soundtrack of
what once was and what will be.

My body, mind and soul, now as one, I ride upon the
dream filled clouds that float so high above.

I will not rush these moments. I’ll watch the sky tonight,
and gaze upon the stars, and think of
where I’d like to be.

I hope tomorrow, I’ll see my dreams drift
high above on moonlit clouds, but a little bit
closer, and not so far they’ll be.
