The call to true love

 

Will you kneel

And call to me 

To tell me

How you feel 

In this winters snow

As the cold North winds 

Blow

With an invocation

To build an unbroken seal

With a sultry prayer of hello

Will you still whisper

My sacred name

Wherever go

When all that remains

Is my old memories

That got wet

In the falling rhythms of rain

Like a pot of gold

At the end of the beautiful rainbow

I may be watching you

Moving below

From the high towers in Heaven

Following your shadow

Mixing with sinners as it goes

Walking through forests

And strange sideshows

Filled with tall pines of depression with such courage

Now I'm gone

To the Great Place Beyond

The falling

Weeping Willows

Up to here

Where the Eternal Light

Forever glows

I still dream

Of all the tranquil things 

We used to do

Dream of holding you

Somewhere beyond these bluest of oceans 

And in dreams

If you call to me

I'll come

To help us both

For we deserve

Salvation
