In her sleep where she keeps a matchbox full of dreams, unlit
I sit beside her bed and listen to her voice,in dreams she said,
'I want you now,tomorrow will not do'
'and I want you', was my reply.
She shifted slightly  and gave a sigh
I separated the why from how and now just need to know the when and then we'll fly away
dream together every day and in every way or thing we do
I'll be there ,watching over you.

So sleep now dear, the future is much nearer, than you think it could possibly be
you and me
East and west
the beast is tamed by the best
West and East
the best tamed by the beast
and see how good it will become.

Light your dreams up
fire the sun
forget the fun though fun it will be
and open your eyes
see
me.
