More Than A Dream

I wish I could give you more
Than a beaten word
Lost on that shore
White island forlorn

More than this world hopelessly burnt
Forgotten verse rotten inside
Random story you’ve never heard
Broken memory forever torn
Forever longing for your heart

I wish I could be more than a dream
A tiny drop in enormous sea
Lost kite in blue blue sky
Silent wish through the night
Midwinter lullaby
Caressed by magic and awe
Lying still on white shroud of snow

More than a tale written within
A call of a fantasy
More than a dream you try to deny
Silent touch of the kite
Beneath the world you’ve never seen

Close your eyes
Imagine me near
Draw me by your side
Caress me real
To see what’s lost within

I wish I could give you more
Than you ever wished to be
The same songs on an empty shore
Long time ago, dream oceans we share within
For the heart of lost starlit sea
