I Think I See

every now and again when the wind is blowing just right I hear the music playing like it did our very first night maybe it's just the mesquite or the call of the nightingale but I know I can hear it and I think I always will when the clouds are forming in the morning sky I think I see you looking at me with those crystal clear blue eyes and if I squint mine tightly I think I catch your wink maybe it just the sun's glare maybe you're closer than I think I can smell the raindrops and all the flowers that bloom I can hear the music that I first heard with you I can hear you singing in that perfect pitch I still get the feeling that there's much more to this I no longer get the messages that you used to text my phone no longer rings this I really miss while you're slaying your own dragons mine won't leave me alone you don't miss what you don't have I know you're not coming home many things left incomplete the newspapers are stacking up we no longer share coffee you took your favorite cup the dust settled on the floor with all you left behind I could see our future but I think you were blind I can smell the raindrops and all the flowers that bloom I can hear the music that I first heard with you I can hear you singing in that perfect pitch I still get the feeling that there's much more to this
