Hello Old Friend
 





hello old friend, I thought that was you ...

is it the clouds which drift by that interrupt your shining light

or ....

are you peeping through my window in search of her this night?

it's ok old friend, don't feel shame
I know your want, your longing ....
I feel the same

no ... she is not here, I am alone
was that the wind I heard?
or did you moan?

no ... don't go ....

stay a while ... and share with me the memories
of the nights when we were three
just you and I and she

stay with me oh you lonely moon
for I am lonely too
and what time remains is so trivial
I'd rather spend it all with you

listen as words flow from a soul awakened
one brought to life by love
and too soon forsaken

and recall to me oh my lonely friend
yes do .... now that it's just we two
how much brighter this old the universe would be
when it was then we three

no .... no old friend .... there is nothing in my eye
and was that rain I just felt?

or ...

have you too ... just begun to cry?
