Your once lonely eyes fill with hope
As your heart searches the distance
You concentrate on your every step
To ensure that somehow I will know
What it is that your lips whisper out
In the thick of night near the window
As if your thoughts could walk on air
And soon find their way home to me
You imagine yourself slowly soaring
Your soft dreams have found a way
To stay aloft high in that midnight
on once discarded and dusty wings
You center me with a kind of beacon
the light upon the shores of your life
To steer me away from distractions
So I can sail clearly into your world
I stay awake most of the cool night
Wondering what it is you are doing
To have captured my every thought
to stay intensely focused upon you
I set out a net in the southeast skies
To catch whatever dream you have
Filtering out those heavy dark stars
As if they were small fish in the sea
clouds dare give out all your secrets
The constellations go into a trance
And then I begin to have this vision
of just you and I getting up to dance
soon with your head upon my shoulder
floating as our bodies become as one
skirting the floor in that soft music
well until the last number is played
