A Love Story (and a tribute to Harry Chapin) cuz I haven't slept in days but these words aren't meant for keeping not when the old music plays so of course I should be singing and not only to myself Mr. Tanner is aware now life is not up on the shelf it was raining hard in Frisco... she was barely fifteen when I saw her face and the lights went out all over the place like some old movie I don't remember all I could see was my hand and her and I reached out with the best I had told her I never knew I was sad until I saw her and realized everything before was made of lies until I met her I must have been depressed for she redefined my happiness and nothing was ever the same I don't even have to speak her name you know like a bolt out of the blue you know you've seen the movie too I was just old enough to start to shave when the night opened and suddenly gave my eyes the precious image of the eyes that told me how to love my hand in yours my hand is yours your wish command please take my hand my arms around this dream I found your arms around I'm heaven bound love love love yeah well something happened it always does growing up doesn't need a cause parents cooled us down or so it appeared went away to school life, it was nightmared but inside the fires still burns after all these years it was raining hard in Toronto... she was soaking wet when I saw her face an angel fallen in a pool of grace and one look said nothing can replace the first dream that a heart takes chase the sun went black and the stars grew dim only thing was wrong, she was holding him from across the yard, like an evil dance only her eyes said we still had a chance but I'm not the kind who breaks up someone else so I left my heart up there on the shelf and I blew a kiss through the tear in my eye watching my first love with her lucky guy you know like a bolt out of the blue you know you've seen the movie too my hand to yours my hand is yours waving adeiu best luck to you his arms around this dream I found your arms around I'm underground love love love yeah well something happened it always does moving on doesn't take a pause distance cooled us down or so it appeared raised a family life, it gets so weird but inside the fires still burns after all these years it was raining hard in Orlando... was it at a graduation or a funeral saw a touch of gray still looked beautiful and she was alone as far as I could see and she said my name and offered me a key and she asked "would you spend some time with me cuz the last thing I ever wanted was to see you grow old lonely without me" she told me about her married days how a good man sometimes changes his way but she never put him down and only I could see the frown he was the second love she ever had and in the end he was far from bad but her eyes teared up the sweetest blue when she said "he just never lived up to you and now he is gone, a good memory but the best love is still fantasy and that is what you meant to me now I'd like to see our reality" we went home and visited her kids they had the same smile their mother did and we fell in love all over again in the here and now, not the way back when and I know why they call them golden years for life is as precious as it appears destiny happens no matter what we do so believe me friend, there is hope for you just believe your heart and never turn back take care of what you have, forget what you lack and share your best with those you love that's how to find all you're dreaming of you know like a bolt out of the blue you know you've seen the movie too I was just young enough to still enjoy raising our little girl and boy the eyes, the precious image of the eyes that told me how to love my hands in yours my hands are yours your wish commands please take my hands my arms around this dream I found your arms around I'm heaven bound love love love yeah

I love you all for coming... for reading all these words for every click feels like more love (I know that sounds absurd) if I could only tell you... one thing more tonight I'd say I wish you could come home with me and be my friends for life |
