Gray Days The bell went ding a ling I listened to it's wail You were not with me to make my spirit sail Waking in my bed lost in a lonely grip Only one here was heartaches harsh whip Then I dream of better days laying in my bed The days we were together before your spirit fled Listening to the water whispering down the brook Or sitting by the fire and your sentamental look I miss the little things like washing dishes at the sink Or dinning at the table sharing what we think I remember the ocean walking hand in hand And the many shells we rescued from the sand Your eyes alight with wonder of the treasures of the sea You never seemed to tire of the thrill of showing me We shared a special moment watching the moons reflected light Playing on the wave tops like a lightening storm at night It sent it's many branches down along the beach We watched with a childs wonder of something out of reach We lay for many hours listening to the sea It sang it's seductive song and set our spirits free We made love to the beat of this background serenade For the treasure of this memory there is nothing I would trade Then there was Niagra and it's mighty falls Oh the awesome splender of it's blue green walls With the white caps billowing like clouds before a storm Staring speachless our senseses victums to the swarm Amazed by it's power and awed by the view We stood there arm in arm as excitement grew Enveloped by it's mist and energized by it's roar It started our bodies humming and made our spirits soar All this I remember laying in my bed I want to stay and dream where our spirits tread Yet I must keep going to give up would be a crime Soon I will join you and we'll be together for all time I get up as the alarm bell slowly dies Gray clouds surround me and I stifle sorrows cries You are not with me to chase the clouds away But your spirit gives me strength though the day is ever gray Author Mr»ÄlleÿÇät copyright © Ed Schmidt 2001 |
