Reality
Copyright 1995

They say reality is an image

I think therefore I am

but no matter how hard I reach for you

you fade before my eyes

When I get close enough to reach out

you ripple like water

a pebble thrown into a calm pool

when stilled there's only me.

If only I could wish you to me

and set my heart to rest

You are everything I've longed for

Are you just a mirage?

Your face haunts all my lonely night dreams

your voice pierces my soul

your body I would give all to pleasure

I long to claim your heart

It's cruel that what allows me to see you

takes my chances away

but if you'd never chosen what you do

I'd know that there was you

Though I'd have no name to call you

no perfect form to see

I would know that there was someone out there

Who's heart was right for me
