Twice Lost In June

Write it on Monday and send it in June, Pray that her lover don't find it too soon. Pass on the sunrise but hold fast the moon, Let go the promise which opens old wounds. Offer up friendship that's hidden in time, Dance to the music shared by joy and rhyme. Stare at the movements coming from the mime, Look to the mountains that he'll never climb. Shadows in ev'ning cloud those that walk by, Lost in yesterdays and the tears they cry. Somewhere in night's dream two more secrets fly, Leaving to angels fantasies denied. Look back through the years then turn o'er the page, Close the golden bars of a gilded cage. Ride the waves of tide and collect a wage For all that's been done when upon life's stage. Sit back and enjoy the melodic tune That carries the words written on a dune. Maybe she be there, near your yellow moon, Dreaming of a love once sent off in June.
