Fortunes Clown

Fortunes Clown

Oh how I wish for soothing rain
To calm my aches, to dull my pain
To pick me up, to set me down
Yet I am but blind fortune’s clown

Oh how I’d love to fly away
To travel far is what I pray
To hear you laugh to feel your kiss
That’s the thing I truly miss

Oh how I yearn to taste fresh air
To laugh and love, without a care
Yet I look back at my prison cell
This isn’t heaven, only hell

Oh how I need to break the bars
To smell your breath to see the stars
To touch your face I’d give my life
Memories come, sharp as a knife

I see your eyes, they’re shining bright
As river diamonds in the light
I hear your voice, sweet melody
By your side I swear I’ll be

Shrouded is the future, love
I feel your hair, soft as a dove
I may never see you more
Just know you all that I adore

I may die here in the dark
No trace of my passing, not a mark
But my angelic light, know that I
Will love you, yea, until I die
