all those years
that you have given me
it seems such
as a lasting opportunity

you have given me
not a broken promise
not a backhanded stroke
ever a gentle touch

and for what reason
have you played me so?

in a moment
you leave me alone
just for a moment
and I turn

around in circles
you have bound me free
so free

free with you

and you tell me stories
of lost love found
of heartbroken boundaries
of long gone memories

and I believe
I believe in you

for the words
you tell me
are true

and in my heart
and in my head
there is a tune
that plays
for you

a song
a sign

just
a hand in mine
a waiting

and in just
a little while
we’ll see

if eternity
holds life
together

when we sing
you and me
