postcards from the caravan...words from the road...

in my dreams of you

i felt you there

with me along the way
soaring gently above

wings spread to the moon and back

gliding in and out of my thoughts

cradling me in the night

in my dreams of you

i felt you

* * *

it's painted all over your heart

you know the place

the place you go when love first starts

when it cuts through deep and sharp

it's written all over your face

you know the place

the place you hide from the race

when happiness leaves without a trace

* * *

do you remember when

way back then

we danced the dance

only two can chance

and you held me tight

all through the night

how i wish with all my might

that i'd just got it right

way back then

when we danced the dance

do you remember when

* * *

missed that first train
and the last train
then i found you
and i've been born again

* * *

now i lay me down to sleep

and in my heart i do thee keep

while my waking heart quietly weeps

for there it cannot you keep

* * *

if i had known you before

if i had shown you before

if i had loved you before

would it be different now?

well, i did

and i do

* * *

in the begin of time
you would be mine
if the seas did not us separate
if the winds did not whisk us apart
and if the heavens betrayed us not
you would be mine
till the end of time

* * *

it was a time of shattered souls and broken hearts

that time when we were ripped apart

a time of fractured nights

and days dissolved into oblivion

it is a time of broken souls and shattered hearts

still

* * *

i was lost in the dark

forgot who i was

then i found you

and i am

who i am

* * *

you're so far away
and i'm here to stay
send me a letter from home
i'm so all alone
pen it with your love for me
fill it with your lust for me
seal it with a kiss
i'm so all alone
send me a letter from home
from far far away

* * *

as i drove on my recent road trip

i scribbled little snippets in my notebook -

these are some of those -
