The Cradled Dream – Complete Version She was sleeping, Im still dreaming, Lost in the memory, Of all that I found there, Somewhere, In a time when I knew her, In moments awoken, Long ago, Knowing soulful though words, On a song sheet arrayed, They must all fade into grey, Never to rival, The light of her day, Surrendering nothing, No calling betrayed, For deep are a fountain’s, Sacred soul, Passing milestones, Testing tolls, They were her landmarks, One and all, And all for the future, Love foretold, And I will never say, Never again, To her heart, Never say, Never again, To the part, Or the cradled dream departs, For if the love lines, Are the right lines, Can a love song, Lost in a desert, Reach out, Futile and dreaming, Beyond where the meanings, Must reside, And when the dark lines, Measure the deep times, Can the lover, Though scorned and a stranger, Shine on, Never fearing betrayal, With all that is hateful, Cast aside? That he may never say, Never again, To his heart, Never say, Never again, To the part, Or the cradled dream departs, For the love lines, Are fragile and treasured, Being the right lines, Measure their part, Knowing a lifetimes, Dreams are forever, In spite of the right times, Failing chart, And should our lifelines, Last our lifetimes, May their memories, Eternally play here, Stay here, Wide awake on the ocean, Where breaking emotions, Turn the tide, Now I’m lost in sweeter moments, Deeper magic as sails on emotion, Devotion, engraving my memories, As finest mementos they resound, In starlight shadows on the ground, Lost in a moment she sat down to be by my side, Lost in the magic I found in the gaze of her eyes, That their dancing, reflections hide, There where her caring heart resides, Wherein a daring mind confides, A fever so strong as to fear that it never departs, A longing so tempting that stirs us to play to the part, It is the tragedy of art, So we will never say, Never again, To the heart, Never say, Never again, To the part, Or the cradled dream departs, Ending in never say never again, To our hearts, Never say never again, Torn apart, Or the cradled dream departs, She was sleeping, Im still dreaming, If shes out there... © copyright Paul Trueman 2012/13/14.
