I saw his face Just listening Above the doorway Into a perfect world Where dimensions know no boundaries Where Petula Clark still sings her gaiety of song I have a place of my own to run to To hide Small as a snail’s shell I dive into the cornucopia of song The tendrils of a spider’s web string me along So, I never lose my way In this kaleidoscope of a labyrinth I love to dream here In this world all my own I can play Silly Distant memories Are merely passersby on a bus Waving to me With giraffes poking their heads out above the clouds I linger a little too long And the bells go off The sirens scream And I wake up to morning’s drench of sunshine And I dream again with a new modality of fortune 5/7/2014
