Distant Clouds and Fading Stars
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Looking at the crowds, in different ways now....
As they turn their heads and I close my eyes
Smiling as I walk on by; wondering, if ever they heard
These words, while the days did fade to slip away ~
Turning towards the Sun I have known....
Calling cards they failed to hold, as I spilled my heart
Upon this Soul, amid distant crowds and fading stars
Looking at the skies in different ways, while its blue
Fades to black and yet, still they'll say as I take a bow ~
Lower my head, gently smile, walk on past; turning
Towards the Sun I have known, and calling cards they
Failed to hold, as I spilled my Soul upon this heart....
