A Lover's Entrée To March

How far can you fall and get back up How high can you jump And keep your feet in the sand To touch grace and fall from within Next to you I was out of my skin I missed you yesterday and you leave tomorrow A life spent in the shadows of lushly tint Smoke your waves Exhale the freshness of your menthol scent Home is what you call shelters that need no defense I’ll send You’ll say goodbye I’ll send again You won’t reply If love Is the appreciation of another’s existence Then goodbye Is the anticipation of seeing you again You and I, we’ll cruise the shores Together we’ll settle with the wind The joy of a small hut, a lovers den You’ll send I’ll wonder why You’ll send again I will not reply "our songs for sale"
