A world of dreams
Has passed me by
I keep failing
Yet I try
I sense
A pattern
Only in dreams
It once was said
It is not what
I have read
I seek
To know now
I am living dreams
And it fuels my fire
I am living dreams
I hesitate
To understand
I return to living
Off the land
I gather
Information
I travel far
Into the night
I learn that love
Has taken flight
My heart
Is not broken

In my life
I have been places
I followed my heart
Alone and free
In my life
I have seen faces
Seen all the traces
What life could be
I have lived
I have loved
I have traveled
I have been
I have dreamed
I have learned
I have pondered
I have seen
I am here
I am now
I am who
I want to be
I am loved
I am happy
I am here
I am now
I am meant to be
Love me like there is no tomorrow
Love me there will be no sorrow
Let our love be wild and free
Let there be the love that is meant to be

Once there was a simple love
Once there was a heart so true
Once there was a moment in time
Once there was you
Once there were open dreams
Once there was a way and means
Once was so long ago it seems
Once there was you
Everyone should open their heart
Feel the love from the start
See the path to shared needs
Once there was you
Once there was a path to my heart
Once there was a place to start
Once there was a place in time
Once there was you

I heard a word
Heard a word
Heard a word
It’s true
I found a path
Found a path
Found a path
To you
I never thought
Never thought
Never thought
Ooo ooo
I wonder what
Wonder what
Wonder what
To do
What we did see
Did you feel it
What we did see
Can you believe it
It was a darkened night
Wind blowing through your hair
Living the life
Living the dream
You smiled your smile
Smiled your smile
Smile your smile
To me
No time to rest
Time to rest
Time to rest
Couldn’t see
Move way too fast
Way too fast
Way to fast
Had to be
It had to last
Had to last
Had to last
Meet the need

Light slowly slips in
Eyes need to adjust
Another broken dream
From dawn to dusk
Wanting only rest
From a weary night
Need to find a path
Lead me to delight
Need to see the reason
Let it slip away
There were no kind words
That could make you stay
My heart is broken
The path is not clear
My mind does suffer
No end I do fear
Winter has its tale
Snow blind has a fate
Wanting my new spring
It has been delayed
Knew you were restless
Always wanted more
My heart is open
But could not implore

The road is long
The road is wide
I need you
By my side
When I am tired
When I am beat
I need you
For me to see
This day’s for you
For all you do
Celebrate
Elaborate
When dreams come true
It becomes you
Concentrate
Activate
Ride like the wind
Let the fun begin
Take your time
It’s all fine
Be there with me
Let’s make it be
In the sun
Having fun

Portrait In the window
Visions in the dark
Loneliness in disguise
Benches in the park
The numbers are growing
Whispering time and again
Media portrays sorrow
The truth is never let in
Listen as the feet shuffle
Hair is falling down
Stomachs are growling
Coats pulled around
Feel the rivers flowing
Raging around their ears
Weather is not an issue
Only outsiders fears
Handouts on the corner
Cardboard in the alley
Walk in kitchen supper
Where hearts do often rally
Feel the winter wind blowing
Wrapped in frozen panes
Still they keep on walking
On and on again

Love came walking to my door
Unlike any love I had before
Softly asked could it come in
Said I’ve been looking where you have been
Love didn't even try
To play games with my heart
Love didn’t even wait
For a place to start
This type of love is new
Love came walking to my door
It pushed all the buttons I have explored
Spoke to my heart in ways I felt true
Spoke to my heart in ways I knew
Love came walking to my door
Kept asking for some more
How much does one have to give
Love learns to live and let live?

Talk like there is no tomorrow
Have a brow that is so furrowed
Live a life that is filled with sorrow
Beg steal or maybe borrow
Take a look at life
What do you see
What’s yours is mine through theology
No time to refine your ideology
Take a step up from your biology
Not waiting for your apology
Take a look at life
What do you see
Is it a crime
To wonder
What should come to pass
Is it a crime
To wonder
What is first or last
Is it a crime to wonder
About where you live
Is it a crime to wonder
What you have to give
Is it a crime
Is it a crime
