WHAT DREAM IS THIS


      What dream is this

      She walks down by the stream

      Alone

      Who has taken her there

      Did she find her own way

      Her gaze rising into the night

      Does she remember me

      Do I remember her

      She takes my hand

      Her look still distant

      Then she is gone

      What dream is this

      On top of a mountain

      She stands still

      Not bothered by the height

      Beautiful through all ages

      The transition of time

      Does not effect her

      Her youth and age all become one

      Will she recognize me

      Do I know her

      I take her hand

      It is small in mine

      The touch is kind

      She turns to me

      We have known each other

      Still strangers in this time

      Is she an angel, an aberration

      What dram is this

      At the ocean I am alone

      She stays in my memory

      Where she has always been
