I Wish I Could Leave

I dreamed about the snow-topped
Pines of Michigan 
Wishing I Could Go Back
And See Them Again

I dreamed about the voluminous
Mountains of California 
Wishing I could go Back
And take someone out to Dinner

I dreamed about the scenic
Seascapes from Mexico 
Wishing I could go Back
And have one of their native tacos


I dreamed about cosmopolitan 
Toronto in Canada
Wishing I Could go Back
And view a city, it seems, without a flaw

I dreamed about 
A better tomorrow 
Wishing I could go forward 
And travel instead of being in sorrow
