Moonlight Dreams

The window is open wide and the night has come inside

i look up at the stars and feel for battle scars

i can see mars in the clouds and my worries drift apart

the moon shines at midnight and the sky is filled so bright

i love the world too fiercely to be stranded within the night

doctors and nurses tend to wounded warriors

cultures blend and pain becomes a courier

i bike down to the water line to see what there is to find

in the dead of the dark the brightest are blind

thats why i am home in the stillness of moonlights

and free to dream all through the daylight

I’ve been to the pacific coast highway and the Ventura one too

i rode magic carpets through deserts of beauty

i saw straight ahead to the thickest of forests

i see my true love and she’s wearing a green vest

thats the color that i honor when my body and mind need rest

theres glistening streams and endless blissful dreams

stare straight ahead if you want to look far behind

my vision of the world has been clear for quite some time

my whole life I’ve been wishing knowing i had everything i want

to be equipped with the moonlight in the farthest of faraway dreams

the lagoon i run down too will set my body free

or the bike ride on the west cliff that has become a strong memory

the night holds my peace like the thoughts held on this page

i kiss goodbye to the little prince

and greet myself to my moonlight dreams
