Awake My SoulA Poem by springy tart lemurDixon - 17/8/2012 Oh. Lord. What. A. Time.Summer glow last into the night Awake, my soul, sit bolt upright Hear the dobro play and feel her touch Did you ever think you could feel this much Some nights blur like sea and sand Others just slip through your hands I’ll keep this one as long as I can Yeah I’d be happy to do it again Immortal, immortal What I wouldn’t give Oh Lord, just to live Summer is calling and I must go Mountains will fall and cities will grow If ever we should meet as friends Don’t tell me how the story ends Immortal, immortal What I wouldn’t give Oh Lord, just to live Reaching for the friendship now We had one night in a big tent town It’s faded into the moonlit grass There’s no way to relive the past Immortal, immortal What I wouldn’t give Oh, Lord, just to live Don’t waste the future on the past © 2012 springy tart lemur |
