This is another dream song. The title popped up in my dream and I immediately knew what kind of story I wanted to write behind it. The subconscious mind is a wonderful thing and often brings to surface what has been embedded in the heart and soul.

UN-GONE PLACE OF THE HEART
(Copyright 2008, by Al Johnson)

Un-gone places, places of the heart (intro)

Verse 1
Been to far away places, saw the beauty of the land.
I've seen an eagle soar, just as high as it can.
But my heart's missing something, who's better to judge than me.
I need love, romance, a wonderful sensation, to come over me.

Chorus
Wanna hear birds sing. (yes I do)
(I)Wanna hear sweet bells ring.
(Gotta) feel (that) a tingle from the start.
Wanna go to un-gone places, un-gone places heart.
Un-gone places, un-gone places of the heart, un-gone.

Verse 2
Life's been good to me, no longer searching for a pot of gold.
My body, soul and mind have kept me from growing cold.
But my heart's missing something, who's better to judge than me.
I need love, romance, a wonderful sensation, to come over me.

Bridge
Wanna be in love now and ever after,
Turn the page to a brand new chapter.
Wanna wake up each day rapped in her arms,
Feel the motion of a lovely body, so close, so warm.
