i dreamed.......
i was in heaven and amongst the friends i knew with tears all gone just happiness those heart aches yes them too
my soul renewed my spirits high a feeling so supreme
and then i looked for you my " love "..but nowhere to be seen
i asked st peter .....
.... "check your book" perhaps you missed you way
if somehow yes that's it i thought he missed you name today
from A to Z he crossed the name again with such great care
i'm sorry as he shook his head you friend her name's not there
perhaps an angel with one wing oh look again for me
and yet again the checked the list ...one wing no none ....sorry
ive waited all my life to be alone with you in vain
and now the book of lifes been read not once but twice again
does it.......
....... matter if the rainbow smiles when your alone my friend
or gray skies turn to azure blue or sunsets without end
or flowers bloom most every day or sunshine with it's light
it doesnt matter not at all when your alone at night
so....
i asked around had anyone had seen you walking slowly by
or saw you as a soft red rose with tears left in your eye
a lamb perhaps that's gone astray a bird without it's song
a weeping willow with it's arms across it's face so long
they shook their heads..apologised and then i saw a face
it was not yours but gods alone amongst this wondrous place
with shoulders low..in deep distress...i asked. "lord is it true"
that you were lost your name not found forgotten yes that to
"what is the name"his diary fetched then looking with a frown
mmmhe said in simple tones.."there's nothing written down"
well.......what can i say........ i pledged my love for all eternity
but i'm alone all by myself .....a desert island me
but then a voice.....
.... i knew so well...st peter yes it was he shouted loud
with joy just then and smiled with love because
he found you not in any book nor diary big or small
but in the most unlikely place he never looked at all
he found you.......
...... in a babies smile a kiss at christmas time
that good night sigh a simple touch your hand just left in mine
those eyes across a crowded room no words are ever said
" i love you " like an s.o.s.... please hold me close instead
and also in the pale moon light a butterfly so sweet
a valentine...a birthday card a hug when lovers meet
a sweet hello when you just know two souls are made to be
like cherries red...upon your lips that kiss so tenderly
your name.....
....... is not in any book for i have proved it so but etched with love deep down inside and cared for don't you know
and treasured till we kiss again and i will show you where
by turning over page by page " my heart " it's written there
