Night Into the Night

Night into the night it's lonely
standing on the edge of "it's only"
looking for that someone to hold me,
could that soul be you.

My hands reaching for angels mythological,
methodical, logical, looking for that miracle,
I'm not cynical, heaven is more than biblical,
This is not my typical, all I want it you.

Falling darkness and I'm crawling,
you're name on my lips and I'm calling,
And you come and rescue me... 

Night into the night it's lonely
standing on the edge of "it's only"
looking for that someone to hold me,
Will that soul be you?

You're hands catching broken beautifully,
ironically, comically, glass to a sand of sea.
I'm not invisible, miserable wanting to be free,
This is not my typical, don't let go of me.

I hear singing in the starlight,
I hear you say "baby, it's alright"
I fly into the heaven tonight.

Falling darkness and I'm crawling,
you're name on my lips and I'm calling,
Night into the night I'm not lonely,
here you are, in my heart, to hold me.

I forgot you were homeschooling! How is that going? And yeah I had to shut down Facebook and Instagram; somebody was stealing pictures of my grandson and posting them in other places.

My one and only was meant to be, Yet still did set my sad heart free; She has gone, Since dawn, And now the only one there is me. You have a great FaceBook page. Xylophone toy would be great also.
