Love Note - Austin P. McKenzie

When I was young

When I was home

Among the pines

The forest floor

I feel the dirt

I feel the flowers

I’d feel the rain

I’d feel the wind

What I miss is the stars

The stars in L.A. disappear

My sanctuary never here

Send a love note to the green

To the stars

Back to the pines

A forest floor

Though will fall

Like diamond

The rain will dance

Like paper glass

No young romance

Would be this grand

A tree falls in a city

Will people stop to listen?

While they sleep I’ll be dreaming

Always had trouble sleeping

Dreaming of the stars

The stars in New York disappear

My sanctuary never here

Send a love note to the green

To the stars

I stain my shirt

With caffeine

I lit a match

A forest fire

I burn the thoughts

I try to grow up

The lake water pours from my bones

But instead

The stars in Vegas disappear

My sanctuary never here

Send your love note to the green

Send my letter out through the

And the stars

And the stars

And the stars

And the stars
