A Day With The Band

Smooth gray clouds fill the sky so softly
Covering the bright blue sky
That is hidden behind the gray clouds
Streams of jet smoke
Lined out amongst the gray and blue sky
No storm is in sight
Just this day ending all to soon
Only to wish that I was with you
Instead, I sit patiently with thoughts of you
Running through my mind and hearing your
Voice calling out my name as I sit here lonely
Thinking of you and listening to The Band’s song,
"Here With Me"
The words talk of leaving
But my heart interprets it of wanting to be with you
I can only wish their words, "Here With Me"
Could be my words to say only to you
The warmth from the sun shines on my eyes
As it provides me with the light to see
Into my sub-conscience with the
Images of our moments we have shared
Just within such little time
Our memories come to mind
I cherish each of those times
I see my future, to only be with you
Impatiently hoping you choose me, as I have you
Again, I repeat, The Band’s words,
"No matter where you are tonight
A part of you is here with me"
And when I hear their words
I know in my deep in my heart
These are the chosen words that are true
And with this, they say it so true before me
"All I know, is that I need you here with me"
