She sees a silouette in the window She drops her gaze to the bed Needing to just understand it Like a hunger needs to be fed Desperate to pick up the pieces Of the shattered heart on the floor Traveling back to her childhood dreams As she's done so much before Talking to the people inside her Like they're sitting around in the room Saying only to go back to yesterday When nothing was left to assume She sails on the plans she was making Destination unknown Thinking that she's going to get there 'Cause she's already too far from home Falling down a well of years Coming to rest in fears Dust on the roses, say goodbye To her dying eyes |

I like this a lot. The phrase I like best, The dust on the roses, say goodbye ------------------ Yesterday is history, tomorrow just a mystery. And if today is good to me how could I ask for more? |

Very beautiful LB....I really love...... She sails on the plans she was making Destination unknown Thinking that she's going to get there 'Cause she's already too far from home. Btw...thanks for b-day wish Jennifer ------------------ Love is an attempt at penetrating another being,But it can only succeed if the surrender is mutual. |
