Shadows Of My Mind

Forever is the time that I must wait

A broken dream besets the beauty of the sunset

The memories un-faded

And faith shattered to a pittance

As the shadows of my mind, draw to a close

 

The writing, in the sand

Is washed away by gentle rain

The wilted rose, it drops it`s last petal to the floor

The chords melt away, in the chambers of the wall

To be forgotten, by the maiden who they call

 

Slip away to the ecstasy of my sleep

A lullaby of love falls softly

As I slowly rest my weary eyes

And slip into a dream

And once again, I`m with you

Walking, walking once again with you

Your hand in mine

You squeeze my hand so tightly

And embrace

You cover your lips with mine

And slowly shut your eyes

And it`s all such undying bliss

You`re here, and nothing can take us away

No-one, can take us away

Your face, it smiles as you open your eyes

But now it fades, in the misty haze

And my eyes open

And once again, I`m here,

All alone

 

Now the singer, he no longer has a song to sing

As he slumbers, on the note of slender hope

The tears slide down

From his closed, exasperated eyes

In frustration, confusion, and love.
