Skylight drips upon the waters
Flowing freely into the endless gaze
No end to this wonder and hope
Sand seeping into your thoughts
Never another place like this

I take in the wind, feeling your prescence
The cold brisk water enlightens me for something more
Can I just run the distance to see you again
See you once more in this peaceful serenity of life
Once more is all I ask from you


Moonlight fills me with wonder of how
Of how this came to be
However it did, I know you'll always be wondering with me
Stretching out across the sandy floor of this forbidden place
Did I make it finally to you.....I can always wonder

The stars of this blissful night fill my vision
The awe that is the universe.....
How much longer will it take for me to find it
This imageless imagination takes me places
Farther then I ever would have wanted to go

Along the trail of this mystical beauty I find you
Dreaming upon a log, looking to the sky for guidance
I take your hand so gently that it feels like air with mine
Can we just find the answer together     I need it
Just feel the vast amount of warmth now

Were almost there now
Reaching out to the endless blue
