I saw you leave
I cried in grief
Brief shadows lurked
Amongst the trees
Why didn't I care?
It was all so brief
Our minds tried to work
But we parted the seas
One side each way
Staring everyday
Until we fade slowly
At each other in dismay
Did you think it was real?
A bottle of wine a sign?
A delicious romantic meal?
Something one can only call the feel
I beckoned you over to me
Unbeknownst to you l, see
As the waves crashed down
And you disappeared
On the ocean floor you will be
Wait.. you were I and I was you
Now in death we both face an
Epiphany
Rest in the salty waters
Dream of green pastures
While all to me that matters
Is the blue from our masters
Blue eyes never change color
The most beautiful of all others
What's that you saw brother?
Me, you and this dying soldier, nothing to wonder
Up in the sky I see you
Unbeknownst to this
I can spare a kiss
I understand you'll miss
Our future together
But I'm in the grey sky
Watching stormy weather
When the day arrives
We will float like feathers
Did you exist?
Did I?
Is our daughter alive?
I saw you leave
I cried in grief
Brief shadows lurked
Amongst the trees
Why didn't I care?
It was all so brief
Our minds tried to work
But we parted the seas
One side each way
Staring everyday
Until we fade slowly
At each other in dismay
Did you think it was real?
A bottle of wine a sign?
A delicious romantic meal?
Something one can only call the feel
I beckoned you over to me
Unbeknownst to you l, see
As the waves crashed down
And you disappeared
On the ocean floor you will be
Wait.. you were I and I was you
Now in death we both face an
Epiphany
Rest in the salty waters
Dream of green pastures
While all to me that matters
Is the blue from our masters
Blue eyes never change color
The most beautiful of all others
What's that you saw brother?
Me, you and this dying soldier, nothing to wonder
Up in the sky I see you
Unbeknownst to this
I can spare a kiss
I understand you'll miss
Our future together
But I'm in the grey sky
Watching stormy weather
When the day arrives
We will float like feathers
Did you exist?
Did I?
Is our daughter alive?
