To Turn Again

Where there are dreams that lie almost dead
There you will find the words you wish unsaid
Where there are hearts lost in heartaches’ pain
There you will find deception the victor again
So how do you save the dream from dark despair?
What should you do when you see lies are there?
How to rescue the heart when its fallen again?
What can you say to it when it’s clearly insane?

Come on dreams rise up the sight is clear for you
Stand up and see the sun you’ll come on through
Come on heart that’s not the way for you to be
Stand up and welcome life for love is your destiny
Turn away despair it has no place here within you
Deflect away those lies for they can never be true
Turn again and face the day your heart will rise
Stand up heart you will be fine despite those lies

Where there are souls lost and calling for release
There you will find sorrows sighs that never cease
Where there are eyes filled with a river of tears
There you will find the words of deceit grows fears
So how do you enlighten the souls shivering in night?
What should you do to bring them back some light?
How to bring some joy to the eyes that grow weary?
What can you say when they look constantly teary?  

Come on souls gather your belonging you’re free
Stand up and celebrate life and loves sweet mystery
Come on eyes stop looking into the face of night
Stand up and rejoice look towards hopes clear light
Turn away the pain it doesn’t have to be like this
Take the chance to feel the wonder of loves’ kiss
Turn away the fears that hold you bound in pain
Take this chance to be reborn in hope once again

Take back the hope you gave,- I claim
Only a memory of the same

Mushy,
oh how I've missed your inspiring write, oh how I've missed your "Home on the Range" wisdom, and most of all I've missed your impassioned pink.  This is the best ever.
Write on

Rise, dreams, rise on high
feel sweet the swift call of love
amid sunbeams, come
