the night before

the night before

the clock moved upward

wondering what the first thing

i should say

would be

from my end

my mind listened to my heart

although it would always question

what was there

was that right

was it the way you spoke

maybe a moment or two

when you moved into the light

the shadows

and just for a split

yeah just for that moment

it felt right

it was the way you moved

and spoke

you reminded me

of that dream i had

last night

and just to hold your hand

i was nervous

right before i opened

my eyes

the sky turned a new shade

of blue that night

and i wonder if i'll

sleep tonight
