Wishful Thinking

If I could dance with memories, that dance would be, you and me. The slowest kind while holding you, that wishful thought, turning true. If I could kiss those lips I dream, a sultry night, we'd paint that scene. Wish for walks hand in hand, a moonlit beach on desert sand. This wish to make all memories, from wishes to reality. A wish for you back by my side, not with the stars, where you now hide.
