Through the avenues of your heart
Back alley ways of love
I look around to see
If anyone’s coming
Is that you?
I can hear my voice echo when
I call out your name
Down the boulevard
Maybe you’re asleep
Somewhere in between
The street lamps
Walking over the bridge
Of your nose
Wandering
In the hope to leave a trace
Some small particle of me
So that you know
I’m looking for you
So you can follow my scent
A footprint
To find your way
Into the comfortable safe
Space that I’ve made for you
In the home of my heart
There’s a place where you can lay
Curl up into the light
And the warmth behind my eyes
That only shines the way
It does when it’s looking back
At you
I hold a flame in my hand
Down a cobble stone path
Made of rock and clay
A thousand years old
Emotionally paved with
Tears of joy
Days and days
So many thoughts and dreams
We’ve painted
I’ll punch the devil
If he gets in our way
