All the Things
by Eric Wolcott
It's all the same
that I've written down a milion times,
all the things that I want to say,
all the things
all the things that I should have done today,
and it's all the things that I have left to be
that make it real,
I don't want to feel,
and it's all the things that I hear
in the back of my mind,
all the things that you want to say,
all the things that I need to hear you say,
and it's all the things that you had left to be
that make it real,
I don't want to feel,
but i'm feeling alive
and I reach for the end
cause I want see what it means to be
and i'm feeling alive
you will know my heart is all the way,
you will know my way,
feel alive,
on our way,
closer than you were today,
higher than you ever be,
closer than you'll ever be,
and I look for the sky
with my head in my hands,
all the thing that you wanted to be,
all the things that you wanted me to see,
so i close my eyes to fade away,
will that make it real,
if I never feel. |
