Destiny
By Paul Wilson


Before I leave this world there’s
so many things I want to do
Before I leave this world there’s
so many things I want to say to you

Seems like life is over before we have
the time to fulfill our dreams
Another day lost forever
or so it seems

To have a chance to do all we want to do
to dream a dream and it come true
To see all your inner thoughts
just to spend another day with you

River of dreams and memories running dry
feelings we never get to explore
Tomorrow may be our last day
never knowing what’s beyond the distant shore

I’ve climbed mountains most my life
Just to see the other side
Fighting my way thru life
never really satisfied

Born during the time of my youth
our future… could not be denied
A billion stars light up the night sky
only two destined to collide

We’ve had a lifetime to share
and build a bond just you and me
Someday we will be together again
For all of eternity

This our “Destiny“

Paul, this is beautiful, and so sincerely, lovingly, written . . . right at the top of your best (that I've read, and many I have).  Applause to you, my friend.
