Lost Love

1995

Last night I dreamed love’s bluebird came Gliding through the whispering treetops, he sang your name My heart took flight and soared through the skies It came to rest atop the mountain where your tender body lies My love filled you with a life that had been hidden from you You awoke in my arms, safe and born anew We danced in green meadows and bathed in the sun Our hearts became tangled and our souls became one You said nothing could stop us, our love was of the best I held you in the dark, your head snuggled on my chest I woke from my dream to this world where true love can never be Where lonesome nights and broken hearts still get the best of me Now I can’t deny, the dream was a lie, I know it can never come true Even with all this love in my heart, the world won’t let me have you
