Oh gypsy soul where have you taken me
You have dug another hole and it has shaken me
There is no time
To even rhyme
The way you run and hide

Oh gypsy soul is it really your goal
To stand alone without a home
Unencumbered,
Tethered to another
Just to hear the silence of the night

Oh gypsy soul where did you go
To be standing all alone like this
Pick up your hurt
And pocket your pride
There is so much more waiting inside

Openin’ your heart
I know is not smart
But smart doesn’t warm you at night
And smart doesn’t glow
Down deep in you, soul.
From another who’s been lit by your fire

Standing alone isn’t really a home
As much as you’d like to believe
You may just rise higher
Feeling that fire
Than you ever could
flying solo
me
