She stands among the fallen leaves
Her gypsy soul envelops them
Awaiting the moment, where
She can become one with them
Deep in thought, her dreams, surpassed
She clings to them, for comfort
Knowing soon, as the seasons change
The trees will surely welcome them

She donned her pretty tutu
Forgot about her shoes
Grabbed a yellow sunflower
Held on tight, as not to lose
Golden tresses fell
In waves, she didn’t lack
Traveled down the pavement
Never once did she look back
She was only a child, a wanderer
Though she drifted, less and less
Followed the roads before her
No longer a restless princess

Let me sail, into the bliss
Where the setting sun and horizon kiss
Journey far, into the night
Let the stars be my guiding light
Watch, as the moon shows his face
I can’t think of being in a better place
I’ll throw my troubles, over the side
I never want to go back inside
Here, is where I long to stay
Upon the ocean, drifting, far away

I’m exhausted, from all night excursions
The wine’s made me numb, from submersion
Quick, pour me another, I’m fading
This feeling is downright degrading
Perhaps, I should lay off the liquor
Since it goes to my head, much quicker
I usually do things quite dumb
Wonder what it is I’ve become
Can’t remember, the next day
What I did, anyway
I’ll probably do it again
To which there is no end
This wine is divine, and now it’s all mine
In fact, it’s my new favorite friend

Let me throw stardust into the sky
Watch the moon catch it, as it floats by
Glimmering pieces, ice covered stones
Glide through the air, like unpiloted drones
Leaving the night, in a shimmer of haze
Over the oceans, with bright lights ablaze
Make a wish, darling, on the next shooting star
Grab hold of it tightly, you’re bound to go far
