A Thousand Words

I'd paint the sky with your name
and carve it on each sandy grain...
whisper it in the morning breeze
blow it across the seven seas..

I'd fly as a white dove in the sky
watch over you from there up high
fall against your window pane
like the cool and fresh summer rain...

I'd turn into a twinkling star
shine for you in your darkest hour..
dry your tears and soothe your fears
hold you close and gather you near..

All this and more I wish to say
to God..a thousand words to pray...
for my dream and yours should come true..
and then for me to follow you..
