Lost, farewell
under this sinking sun
in an ocean of sky
dust and bones
echoes of rusty guns
i'm not too young to die
your love is a compass rose
steadfast through this sand and stone
wind, carry these letters home to Joan
old memories come to life
a last dance in this amber light
wind, carry these letters home tonight
spinning wheels
since i was just a boy
with a traveling mind
the bright moon steals
the heart of orion's joy
we trace a simple line
all our days
there was a song that played
for you in my head
all these things on my mind
now that i'm taking the time
to write
see these letters swirl
like a thousand white birds
in the sky up above her
i'm a flag unfurled
and I'm sending my heart
to a dear friend and lover
