Turning my head as I reach the door atop the stairHoping beyond a chance that I might find him there
In darker hours, in want of time
Turning my head to escape the signs
Hindering thoughts remove my mind from my tasks
Wondering how they could be precious, the moments for which I ask
I'll beg to be consumed
Leaving all of sadness no more room
I'll send each promise sailing with tomorrow's wind
The intoxicating late night calls I shall rescind
Upon the stars I can request to incur no further blame
The enormity of the universe can only request of me the same
Turning my head as I set out into the world, ready to stake my share
Hoping with all my heart that he'll look for me out there...
