This is gorgeous. What a beautiful sentiment. Great songwriting.

Hurricane

Written for GYAWS™ 17.08 (theme RESTLESS)

I would have liked to have talked with you
I wrote in on my list of things to do
But I was busy, and days were short
And we were many worlds apart
Though you were always in my heart

When we were little and went to school
We had a kingdom that was ours to rule
And noone else was allowed inside
We kept out anyone who tried
It was our land, our paradise

But we grew up, and we grew apart
You had your roots, I had a restless heart
And I had wings, so I had to fly
And you had none, you stayed behind
The land was yours, mine was the sky

I would have liked to have turned around
Have seen you waiving at me on the ground
I would have liked to say "See you soon"
But I was young, and restless too,
And I forgot to think of you

I would ascend high above the clouds
And I would plummet swiftly to the ground
And I would never see you again
Although I did not know it then
We'd both run out of time to spend

They said you drank more than you should drink
They said you thought more than you ought to think
They showed me pictures and cried for you
They said I ought to come round soon
I said I would, and I meant to

I would have liked to have talked with you
I wrote in on my list of things to do
But I was busy, and days were short
And we were many worlds apart
Though you were always in my heart

Mine Was The Sky
