Silently I looked into the dark of night but not to see anything of earthly sight My mind did still hear the words you said all the thoughts stirring around in my head You knew in your whispers of the eve before that you would draw me back, to past's open door The dominos of memory tumble before me, to lay on the baize table top for me to see In scattered shining of ivory divine drawing my hand to make a pattern out of time Out of the jumbled shimmering pieces lay I slowly fit the pieces where they may Do i pause on the double nine or take the double one or am I mocked as I wait for the rising sun To close my eyes would be better yet for the pieces all fit in perfect set Shuffle around in any which way they all still slide back in that faraway day Finally sleep will close my eyes to the tune of forgotten sighs And in my dreams, you came as you said where once more, you held my hand in gentle led To a glen of wonderous delight that lasted us both all through that night |

in the dominoes of fates that be a story unfolds that we would see a game of chance, the begin of start now tell us more straight from your heart |

And in my dreams, you came as you said where once more, you held my hand in gentle led To a glen of wonderous delight that lasted us both all through that night ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beautiful dear Logan.
