Told

I can’t stand the distance to the other side
Tearing and ripping my being apart,
I can’t stand not knowing who you are
But I know that you have my beating heart

I walk alone in the dark,
My mind plays tricks on me
I know you’re out there somewhere
Wherever that is, it’s where I wish I could be.

A night, a word, a kiss…a feeling
I jump into the winds that blow me
Away, you are. How far? I can’t tell.
Let me tell you about the thing you carry.

They all ffffllllyyyy away
The dreams that I let pass by,
And they all move together slowly
Teasing me taunting and killing and haunting

Perhaps you’re a ghost,
Perhaps you’re a dream
A ghost of a dream
Or a dream of a ghost.

Having stolen my heart to the otherworld
Where will you now go?
Where will you take me now?
Will I ever know? Can I ever know?

The firefly will sigh goodbye
And winters coming on
All the leaves have flown and ice is coming.

The tears flow more readily these days.

Where are you?
