Salty Wine

The wine in my glass Salted by my tears The blood from my heart Pumps a million fears... And day upon day Becomes year upon years... All this time, I had to know... Where you were, And does time flow... As slow for you, As it has for me? And will there ever come A day that we... Will speak again, Will share our love In wonderment Of the stars above And now it has Come to pass I share this world again With the lass Who's beauty lies Inside and out, And from the rooftop, I long to shout... "Thank You God! Thank You so!" You have brought her back And now I know... The flame still burns, Burns so bright... It turns away The black of night... And so I say Miracles do come to me See the Golden Light And the love that must be.
