Lost
In my dreams
I'm forever walking around
Lost in a big city
Trying to find something way out somewhere
Walking
Never in a car
Although one time I was flying
Flying around corners that went nowhere
But what a wonderful dream
To be flying
To be REALLY flying
Just once
Ever since I'm on foot
Wandering the corridors of strange buildings
Asking directions of strangers
Getting strange directions
My destination is always out in the countryside
But I'm in the big city
Lost
There is a field with cows and horses sheep corn a big willow tree
A rundown wire fence
And in the distance a two story farm house
This is usually my destination
But vision is blocked
Lost
Lost behind high buildings
When finding possibilities is near
There is a blank space _____________
Then POP!
I'm back where I began
Lost
People have told me I'm searching for God
But this is not what strikes me in the dream
Actually
God is searching for me
Searching from that countryside field
With cows and horses sheep corn a big willow tree full of shade
God is flying around corners that lead nowhere
And God is
Lost
Lost behind tall buildings
