The harmony overcame me before
I understood where I was going…
Before I understood that I was falling…
I just can’t think when we sing together.
Your eyes, aquamarine, cause me to spin
toward a distant universe,
where we are in synch… in harmony.
Here I just come apart,
the harmonies, more than I can bare.
And I bare much with my song
because it fills my soul
with longing, and opens me to my core.
I will never reach for you…
except through a song,
sung gently through a heart aching to open.
