I still dream of those four days
The memories will never fade
How can I describe a moment and
tell you what it meant?
Suddenly the world went silent
We stood outside the flux of life
Beauty burned from every atom
Do you remember how it felt?
Children played in a pickup truck
Cats so still like porcelain
I simple walk without a word
But in that moment we both knew
Your dark eyes and your brown skin
With beauty matched deep within
What you inspired it transcended
all that I had known of love.
So many things within me
Time and life had atrophied
You brought me a reawakening
You made me feel life again
It seemed that we had known each other
Since the universe began
My feelings of alienation
Would fade when I was by your side
You watched the raindrops on your window
Roll down and splash upon the sill
Except for one merged with another
You said those were you and I
But fate would not allow this love
Circumstance stole you away
Now all that my life has to offer
It all pales beside you
It pales beyond the dream
It all pales beyond the dream
1993 - Caeser Pink
