Go Before the Toss
caress with a kiss a passing fling
whispers in the park an angelic ring
space, traces & faces
look at all the lonely people
the stained glass & the church steeple
when I look deep into your eyes I can see a future
a beacon of light to a hurting world in need of love
how you have fought so hard & fierce
my one truest love is gone from here
a challenge to be free is a quest of time
my one solution is using my mind
living on the edge & its going to my head
sitting up at night all alone in bed
following a rainbow to the sky
i see a dear vision of you pass me right by
you got to go through hell to get to heaven
shadows block the mere vortex of my eye
watch as you greet that vain passerby
love is gained it also has lost
humanities heaviest of cost
some will go before the toss
