new version of an older song, revised to fit the amazing music put to it by the one and only luke ezzo. It amazed me how, 4 months later, this song took on new dimensions and meaning in my life. Things will always start over new, with lingering of the past pushing for a hope of the future.
Memento
When i saw you staring at
the same painting as I
a gentle look of longing
untold power in your eye
twin windows to a galaxy
of pain turned into good
though no words escaped our lips
i knew we understood
It was good to see you for a moment
before you slipped away
the look in your eyes spoke of wonders
lost along the way
leaving the scent of life
rippling in the wave
...so much more to say
such a light shone from within
I basked upon its rays
with no one else my dear
I'd spend such uncertain days
question my existence
question what is trite
strong in purpose, hand in hand
walk into shifting night
It was good to see you for a moment
before you slipped away
the look in your eyes spoke of wonders
lost along the way
leaving the scent of life
rippling in the wave
...so much more to say
it is for this moment that i live
wade through the rising tide
there is no treetop i can't reach
with you by my side.
I'd give myself up for you
sacrifice my pride
with your love closed in my heart
the world is open wide
