Well, i stayed awake 'til the sun came up
like some distant memory.
and i watched as the night and it's wisdom

disappeared right before me.

I was picturing you in that dublin blue

and i reached out in vain once again,
knowing that you're there and i'm here
and there's so much out there in between.


Like a post card i could try hard
somehow describing just what i feel...

..but its far too real.

Staring out at the ocean

listening to the traffic below.
everybody's fueled by frustration,
still its only love making everyone go.


The waves crash down i hear the sound
of the time-keeping tide, once again

reminding me its only life
and i should feel free just to be.


Like a stonewall i could stand tall
waving my flag claiming how i feel...
...but its far too real.


As seagulls soar through the sunset they
leave their silhouettes of wind driven wings.

i quietly watch what remains of the day
and i listen as my soul sings.


Shadows run long like a sad song
and the night claims my tears once again.
as i return to all i've learned

somehow i finally see the light.

Like an old jar i could try hard

somehow containing just what i feel...
...but its far too real.


I stayed awake 'til the sun came up
like some distant memory.
and i watched as the night and her wisdom

disappeared right before me.
