Where are you tonight- The one I’m dreaming of? The one to make things right- The one whom I could love. The one who was appointed- To walk near to my side... I wonder as I write this... Just where you are tonight. Are you home, dear, with a family And feel so out of place? Are you in some squalid barroom Your life abject disgrace? Do your long frustrated passions- Make you scream, and sob, and fight? Do you need me like I need you? Where are you tonight? I know you are a dreamer.... Do your dreams portend of me, Do you love me, and desire me- A man you cannot see? Do you stumble in life’s darkness- A soul bereft of sight... Are you calling to me, darling? Oh, where are you tonight? |

Beautiful, I can feel the longing in this one. Who hasn't felt this way before? |

Gunslinger, this is so beautiful! ------------------ Thinking is just what a great many people think they are doing when they are merely rearranging their predjudices. |

What can I say about this? How many times I have wondered the same things. Love it! |
