Another Chance (A Lyric)

 

Let’s make another chance

To get back to the life

We left behind

In a trail abandoned

For taming the wild;

In the trail

Of our dormant dreams

For a life easily beguiled.

 

Let’s turn again

Our Dreaming on

And tune to the

Loving country song.

I wanna ride my soul

Back to the childhood days

By the green meadows

And the hillside lake

…………………….

I wanna bathe again

In the melting rays

Of winging dreams

In the dancing rains….

 

I wanna run again

Along the fluting wind,

Putting off my boots

Behind the devil’s bend,

Shedding all my loads

Along the autumn’s end….

 

I wanna chase the blue

At the end of green

I wanna feel again

The maddening teen

With the kissing dews

In a breaking dawn,

With the wild flowers

Of an unmowed lawn…

 

Let’s turn again

Our Dreaming on

And tune to the

Loving country song.

I wanna ride my soul

Back to the childhood days

By the green meadows

And the hillside lake

…………………….

I wanna bathe again

In the melting rays

Of childish dreams

In the dancing rains….

 

The world is not

What it seems to be;

The dreams are not

How they’re meant to me…

I’m falling on and on

With time heavy on me;

I’m falling on and on

In a troubled sea…

 

I wanna be lost again

In the wilderness;

I wanna feel again

All that meaninglessness

In floating time

With the flowing Moon

Or chasing the breeze

In a summer noon

With all that carelessness….

 

Let’s turn again

Our Dreaming on

And tune to the

Loving country song.

I wanna ride my soul

Back to the childhood days

By the green meadows

And the hillside lake

…………………….

I wanna bathe again

In the melting rays

Of childish dreams

In the dancing rains….
