Beyond the distant memories, Of a world we once had shared. I searched for deeper meanings, Through the dreams that took me there. You lay between the spaces, Of the dreams I had each night. In silence cloaked with darkness, Far removed from conscious sight. But in that gentle darkness, You remained a shining star. A tiny point of light, That traveled with me very far. And all the years I held that light, Within my longing heart, Though tortured by your memory As we drifted far apart. The months turned into years That led me on my chosen way, As the mist of time gone by Began to shroud those golden days. Still there within the haze Your image floated 'cross my mind. And all the love I found Was less than what I left behind. Our lives become a journey We must follow to the end. And paths we chance upon Can sometimes circle back again. The dreams that don't come true Become the rocks we stumble on, But sometimes still we find the dream That leads the way back home. Between those dreams unfinished I kept my eyes upon the glow. That light of distant memories, Of a love I once had known. And then one day I realized My dream could still come true. So I set my sight upon that star, That led me back to you.
