I Think I See
every now and again
when the wind is blowing just right
I hear the music playing
like it did our very first night
maybe it's just the mesquite
or the call of the nightingale
but I know I can hear it
and I think I always will
when the clouds are forming
in the morning sky
I think I see you looking at me
with those crystal clear blue eyes
and if I squint mine tightly
I think I catch your wink
maybe it just the sun's glare
maybe you're closer than I think
I can smell the raindrops
and all the flowers that bloom
I can hear the music
that I first heard with you
I can hear you singing
in that perfect pitch
I still get the feeling
that there's much more to this
I no longer get the messages
that you used to text
my phone no longer rings
this I really miss
while you're slaying your own dragons
mine won't leave me alone
you don't miss what you don't have
I know you're not coming home
many things left incomplete
the newspapers are stacking up
we no longer share coffee
you took your favorite cup
the dust settled on the floor
with all you left behind
I could see our future
but I think you were blind
I can smell the raindrops
and all the flowers that bloom
I can hear the music
that I first heard with you
I can hear you singing
in that perfect pitch
I still get the feeling
that there's much more to this
