One Summer's Eve


One Summer's eve - a voice was heard

The sunset was thrown together last minute

The colors were a sight to behold

Like paints on a palette - they were organized

The blues and the purples were next to the oranges and reds

The sky - like a Pollock was grand to behold

Some paint still dripping off of the brush

Form clouds and mountain-tops off in the distance

The calm before the storm

Waves crash onto the distant shore

Life is full of mysteries that we are meant to explore

Do you remember the first time I spoke to you?

I told you of a place that I would love to go

But I do not want to go there alone

So - I took you by the hand

And promised we would go together

I keep my promises - my dear

We have so much to do and so little time

I watch how the days come and go

I understand how little I really do know

The night is for dreamers

The day is for believers

Follow me as I show you the way

Dawn is right around the corner

One Summer's Eve - a voice was heard

And we stopped to listen to what it said

It told us to keep on dreaming

For some dreams will become realities

And some realities will become dreams
