Avenue of the Moon

~ Avenue of the Moon ~

 

Yesterday's scars bring me to you

a beacon, when I'm feeling blue

you offer me a different view

as you guide me down your avenue

while you whisper in the night:

 

"breathe, breathe in the air

don't be afraid to care"

 

you know it's easier to say than do

still you champion me to see it through

touched by your glow, hope springs anew

I grow stronger with each rendezvous

as your words make my soul take flight:

 

"breathe, breathe in the air

don't be afraid to care"

 

as dawn breaks, the glory of promises imbue

such a colorful display, so much to pursue

you wink at me as if to say "I knew"

and I know you've set me on a path that's true

as your mantra carries me beyond your moonlight:

 

"breathe, breathe in the air

don't be afraid to care."
