Three Moon Travel
We were driving through New Jersey
when the snow began to fall
the Turnpike looked so beautiful
when your memory I recalled
Then I saw your face in my mind's eye
I saw your lovely smile
I tried so hard to remember you
gone forever and a while
bridge
Whispers from afar:
`I never knew who you are'
The last free fall when we tried to part as friends
and keep the end from breaking us still haunts me
so I sadly …
Stood beside the Christmas tree
and waited for a sign
that you and me would make it through
one step at a time
But the plans we made were not to be
our luck ran out too soon
On New Year's Eve I watched you leave
by a cold December moon
Now I talk to you when I'm alone
as though you're by my side
and I think I see you all the time
in the corner of my eye
Will I never hear your voice again
Will you never hold me tight
Will your laughter never break my heart
the way it did that night?
