Free
Dance a lick, up on a tightrope… strung in between the loves of my life
Where home is a distant memory… nowhere in particular yet so far away
Fly… I’ll fly till my troubles have faded… and I would’ve been if I could’ve been jaded
Free as the wind in a fairy tale blows like …dandelion silt far away
Run in the rain drops where teardrops once reined cats and dogs
Splashed in the puddles and played
A cold wind blew down the home of cards… the waves washed away… the castles of sand
Scattered were the things we always knew… the touch … the eyes of blue
And free as a stranger the inner child plays in the rain
Paints a mothers face and says …she’s still a saint
Step aside while the saints go marching in…
Free yet you weep like a willow for only the silhouette remains
Of an age gone by like a faded photograph… lost in a wallet that I
Always forget then I suddenly remember at the worst possible time
Just know that I will love you always
No matter how vast the oceans of tears
Or how deep the cracks in our hearts become
No matter how distant the eyes seem to stare
Or how cold the touch becomes
Just know that I’ll always love you
