This shade of blue that surrounds you
is a darker hue from what i'm used to
Gone mad a whisper of insanity
Twisted entangled words she was bathed in patchouli
The sweet scent of the memories fade into the breeze
Every cornerstone bleeds the image of your face
As I slip through the shadows, between crowded buildings
crawling, the scent escaping
Flowing hair warm still by the iron
Soft to the touch, only yards behind I know this much
As the rain falls down, pursuit and need
Years ago on the asphalt under our feet
The years all passed by aging mind slowed heartbeat
The sound of your sigh made angels weep
If only you could see me and hear me, feel me
and need me and be how it used to be
If only i could feel you
If only i could hear you
If only i could see you one more time
(As I descend into the vapor...)
