What I want for myself
Is written in our fate
It’s heard in a song
Or the words of a play
Spoken softly in silence
Screamed in the wind
Thought to myself
As coins fall in the well
My wish
Is for us
For all we desire
For life and love to feed the fire
My hope
Is to feel
What a touch can reveal
In thousands of minutes the brief moments we steal
My dream
Is a memory
A vision recalled
Time smooths the edges and tears down the walls
Laying in the grass as the clouds pass by
Taking new shapes against the blue of the sky
Constantly changing all the rules they defy
The winds always shifting and wondering why
Aren’t always the same
Change as the years fade
Moments of clarity
Through years of dark haze
My wish
Is for us
For all we desire
For life and love to feed the fire
My hope
Is to feel
What a touch can reveal
In thousands of minutes the brief moments we steal
My dream
Is a memory
A vision recalled
Time smooths the edges and tears down the walls
