Two Songs |
Dream Sailor
Living on a
dream, floating on a stream
trying to reach
branches set on fire
Water all
around, sucking me from ground
fighting every
step of my desire
Setting
sails in the sun, trying to run
my boat though the
wind ain't a' blowing
Going out
in the new, searching for you
crossing the sea
never knowing
1994
Autumn leaves
Autumn
leaves are praying: "Let us stay a while.
Give us one more
chance to see the sun."
Still the trees
are swaying No one hears the cry
Out of sight the
days of summer run.
Winter storms
are roaring, blowing all the leaves away
leaving branches
dark and bare no matter what they try to say
Nature is
dying, I say farewell
feeling more sad
inside than I can say.
