You Have Never Left

You Have Never Left
(Playing ~ "We'll Meet Again")

The day comes in gray and damp but promising --

A certain kind of hope this day brings with it,

A hope that today we will meet again.

I open the door, breathe the air ... gently I close the door
~ but never on you.

Even though I look for you, in my heart I know the truth.

You are with me as I enjoy a gray, damp, promising day.

Your voice is within me, your smile is forever in my mind.

I ask: How could we meet again when you have never left?

which I find to be poignant and beautiful.

I would love it if you would sign my guest book.
