Velvet Sky

Dreams leaving me reaching Just out of grasp A faint image swirls away I don’t want to wake up I wish to stay Beneath an oak tree On a cool autumn day I hear laughter Then it fades away The fallen leaves Russell And the tall grass sways Memories play as if on a reel In my mind I see you still I raise my eyes to the star filled sky Like diamonds on black velvet I wonder if you see it shine Looking for another Never seeming to find Worlds apart are you and I Lifetimes between us Each other we always miss Never finding that soulful kiss Fate designed our sliding doors Always missing but wanting more I’ll search for you every night Looking to the moon For guiding light
