Away - Perfidious Words

The days were brighter

Gardens more blooming

The nights had more hope

In their silence

The wild was calling

Wishes were whispering

The time was there

But without a meaning

Away, away in time

Every dream is a journey away

Away to a home away from care

Everywhere’s just a journey away

The days departed

Gardens deserted

This frail world

My only rest

The wild calls no more

Wishes so hollow

The Barefoot Boy

Weeping in an empty night

Away, away in time

Every dream is a journey away

Away to a home away from care

Everywhere’s just a journey away

Cherish the moment

Tower the skies

Don’t let the dreamer

fade to grey like grass

No falling for life

A gain for every loss

Time gathered me

But kept me flying

For this gift of dream

I must pay the price

with the loss of

Life’s pleasures
