To the Moon

If I could take you anywhere I’d take you to the moon Far above the trees and clouds And we would go there soon. The first thing I would do for you As we went along the way Is pluck a few stars from the sky And make you a bouquet. We’d walk along the moon dust With only our bare feet And feel it come between our toes Then our eyes would meet We’d sit on the edge With our legs dangling free And every trouble would leave my heart When you smiled at me And then you would take my hand And I’d give you the grand tour Because this moon is a place That I have been before You see, I’ve been to the moon often In my dreams throughout the years The moon is my special place That I’ve treasured and held dear. Never has a person Been to the moon with me And I told myself the one who would, To my heart would hold a key. And so my moonlight loved one It is you who holds the key And I’ve brought you to this place That is cherished unto me I want to say I love you It is you whom I adore Will you use the key you have To open my heart’s door? And in one sweep you’d take me Into your warm embrace I would see the look of forever Etched upon your face In that single moment My life would change for good I’d find my true love on the moon As I always knew I would… February 16, 2006 Holly Miller
