Dedicated to the one I love



I think that it's a sign
That the freckles in our eyes
Are mirror images and
When we kiss they're perfectly aligned.
And I have to speculate
That God himself did make
Us into corresponding shapes
Like puzzles pieces from the clay.
True, it may seem like a stretch
But it's thoughts like this
That catch my troubled head
When you're away
When I am missing you to death.
When you were out there on the road
For several weeks of shows
And when you scan the radio
I hope this song will guide you home.

They will see us waving
from such great heights
"Come down now,"
They'll say.
But everything looks perfect from far away
"Come down now,"
But we'll stay.

I've tried my best to leave
This all on your machine
But the persistent beat
Sounded thin upon listening
That frankly will not fly.
You will hear the shrillest highs
And lowest lows with the windows down
When this is guiding you home.

They will see us waving
From such great heights
"Come down now,"
They'll say.
But everything looks perfect
From far away
"Come down now,"
But we'll stay...
