Let’s Cross That Imaginary Bridge (When We Come To It)
(Part Of: “Dance Dance Revolutionary”)
By: Noah Eaton
11/10/06

Roll your inhibitions up like window blinds,
let’s go to the truth beyond the mind,
the prevailing wind rustles at your fingertips,
syncopating rhythm and rhyme,
wonder is the voiceless music of your heart,
that you can dance to swimmingly,
your breath is the bridge,
that unites your body with your dreams…

So dance away, hey hey hey hey,
go ahead and make your favorite wish,
over the rainbow we’ll have a soiree,
let’s cross that imaginary bridge when we come to it,
let’s play, hey hey hey hey,
in castles in the clouds built from bliss,
let’s make that sweet escape, hey hey hey hey,
let’s cross that imaginary bridge when we come to it.

Every moment’s priceless in possibility,
take my hand, let’s kiss the unknown,
raise your sights above the mountains,
and see just how tall you can grow,
wonder is the voiceless music of your heart,
that you can dance to swimmingly,
your breath is the bridge,
that unites your body with your dreams…

So dance away, hey hey hey hey,
go ahead and make your favorite wish,
over the rainbow we’ll have a soiree,
let’s cross that imaginary bridge when we come to it,
let’s play, hey hey hey hey,
in castles in the clouds built from bliss,
let’s make that sweet escape, hey hey hey hey,
let’s cross that imaginary bridge when we come to it.

So dance away, hey hey hey hey,
go ahead and make your favorite wish,
over the rainbow we’ll have a soiree,
let’s cross that imaginary bridge when we come to it,
let’s play, hey hey hey hey,
in castles in the clouds built from bliss,
let’s make that sweet escape, hey hey hey hey,
let’s cross that imaginary bridge when we come to it.

Angel,
you haven't lost your touch and though I haven't been here for a while your music drew me back. I would make one small review though...In stanza three you write just to see how tall you can grow. I would make it retrospective and say just to see how tall you have grown. The rhythm remains the same but it gives it a better rhyme.

Cheers
Kethry

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

What a glorious beginning, dear Noah! Who can resist your rhythm?

I think the bridge is there, but invisible  ... and love makes it tangible.

Beautiful!

Love and hugs.

~your breath is the bridge,
that unites your body with your dreams…

~Every moment’s priceless in possibility,
take my hand, let’s kiss the unknown,

~raise your sights above the mountains,
and see just how tall you can grow,

~wonder is the voiceless music of your heart,
that you can dance to swimmingly,

~your breath is the bridge,
that unites your body with your dreams…

Noah, there are so many memorable lines that I found myself practically quoting the entire poem!

This is a to be sure!

Love & Dancing the Light Fantastic,

Now, where did I leave my inhibitions?
Way to go, Noah!
