I slipped away last evening
cause I was grieving
the absence of you, baby
and our love that was so true
as i headed for the shore
where we'd spent
many hours before,
just holding
on to each other
lover to lover.
But I hear those
waters calling me
to join them
in the dead of night,
spreading like
an aqua velvet
to cover me,
my tranquilizer
if I so choose.
Cause the air
without you
it suffocates me.
Perhaps the coolness
of the sea inhaled
would wash free
the pain in my empty soul,
But the moon is
such a lovely pendant
on the shadowed capes of
those ebony skies.
that moon that
shared our last kiss,
and it could light many more.
And so I cast your memories
into its depth instead.....
weeping as they disappeared
far from the tides that bind.
as The moon's light
....illuminates my path
in my escape from my blues
Then Love calls to me
from lips not yet shared
as I embrace the night--
without you.
without you..oo.oo.oo.oo.

Never leave it with just a toe tag
to mark your departure."
