The Only Place To Be

We crossed streets that were never paved...
                               Signs for direction I saw and just waved...
                                 I peeked my head up over the skyline...
                 There I saw a view of colors and rivers that flowed with wine...
                       Where ageless dreams run through minds not hollow...
                           A sky with a moon that the clouds don't swallow...
                          The music is soothing and filled with tender peace...
                              A place where we love as much as we please...
                               If one day you feel your in a place not fair...
                     Just come to my place where there is only love and care...
