 My Sanity and Insanity

Dandelion Sky


Gave it all to a fortunate fool,
When trees were frequent, but leaves were far and few.
Couldn't leave my love behind,
So I grabbed my guitar and was gone to find something true.

Hoping to lose the musings of man,
I went to hear the sea serenade the sand.
Always thought, and liked to believe,
That the sun wouldn't rise till I'd fallen asleep.

My rearview mirror proved me wrong,
Accompanied my humming to the morning birds' song.
The sky painted me a lovely view,
Of dandelion yellow, orange and blue.

Looking to live,
With a girl who could give,
Reason to write,
The stories in her eyes,
Thought I might have found her.

Birds in a nest,
Thought the earliest best,
But would never have guessed,
That blackberries taste even better.
 
Found a woman within these walls,
Got a mind full of secrets, her laughter and little flaws.
La la la la (*to sound like laughter)
I'll end this affair when my time is due,
When I've learned love's lessons, and fixed a few,  
And each time I stumble, her footprints lead mine,
Till I find the love that shades my dreams divine.
