If You Hear Me Now
Oh, for long have I known, and heard its moan
This dark zone wails while I stand all alone
Where nights of yore your memories evoke
When saddened tears choke as emotions stoke
Stilling me there on the freeway we chose
Alas, those feelings, are still caught in throes
And decline hand of grace that extends hope
So, this lonesome life, on its own, must cope
Amid moans and wails, till this shroud is gone
For the night that howls, will always find dawn
And sun too will rise, to sweet songs of lark
And rays-gold, will gleam, to light-up the dark
If you hear me now, dear, will you please call
When I hold your hand, we'll end reign of gall
If you hear me now, dear, tell me how soon
Oh, tell me how soon, moon for us will croon
