Deja vu
Here we are again
back on the road to hell
& everything I thought
I knew, has vanished
in the morning mist.
I’m lost from you.
If I could take back
time, dust it off from
sharpened youth
if I could take back
time, I’d live a different
tune.
We’re travellers for
a moment, crossing rivers
long run dry
seeing lands we’ve
always wished for
rainbows washed
from drifting lives,
if I could take back time
meet you at the corner
of my dreams
if I could take back time
walk the path we never trod
if I could take back
time, I’d live a different
truth.
You found me dressed
in sparkles, you sprinkled
me with tears
if I could touch you
for a moment
whisper words
we both believed
if I could take back
time, hold your hand
& kiss your brow
if I could wrap us up
in yesterday capture
love we’ve never known
if I could wish
for just one moment
erase all that I’ve become
if I could take back
time, I’d live a different
truth.
Here we are again
back on the road to
hell
my demons mutter
nightly & the angels
have all left
if I could take back
time dust it off
from sharpened youth
if I could take back time
I’d chose another truth
if I could take back time
I’d stay with you.
