Summer And Smoke

Nursing my regrets
Two lives pulling different ways
Trading heartless innuendos
Worn out with neglect
Servants to the tyrant of fate
There is so much that you don’t know

I will see you again
Through the window of a fast train
Like a split second frame
From a bad dream that we can’t change

How long will it take?
How much do I owe for mistakes?
Chasing Shylock with a red nose
Children sound asleep
Slowly our emotions awake
Saving heartaches for a headstone

I will see you again
Through the window of a fast train
Like a split second frame
From a bad dream that we can’t change
