Hello stranger down the street, you don’t have to smile all for me I don’t wish for the stars that I’ve seen upon the sky, I fell down on my knees The secrets you once kept are now floating in the air I am resting now on grounding earth, I can feel light coming through my fingertips How can I say yes to my youthful heart while she is here not for the body in a soul? A soul not to be caught in open arms, I don’t wait for the birds I am harmony, not distances no friends but I’m still a friend I am listening, never alone Who am I? The stories of old, momma says bring an old sweater and an umbrella looks like rain, you won’t be cold into the weather of the night or for anything And I don’t know if I believe you, I’m thinking of the change of light So I walk out barefoot and feel tiny droplets from my eyelids closing tight Even for seconds, now it’s raining hard and I can’t tell drops from my tears, it’s all from heart isn’t it baby I run through the shadows of one memory at a time, with no time to speak of, you are so sublime Is it raining now for me, don’t worry yourself dear friend you need not be careful when looking into my eyes even when you’re looking like I’ve told you all before this My heart has felt like stones built into figurines, my bones hallow as fallen tree
