This Way and That
This way and that The shadows have been running all day On the verge of being something more than darkness While outside it rains glass beads of blue water Wait awhile and the wind will blow inland from the Atlantic 's storm tossed skies And dance through the wind chimes on the back porch Wait awhile and the evening star will rise to compliment a flashing thunderbolt And we can go out and dream together Of new beginnings and places we've never been Wait awhile and one of us will say come away with me And the other one will follow As love struggles against the odds Not to be disfigured by the test of time The darkening skies splashed with gray thunder clouds now fades a like watercolor Into the shadows of the of the night.
