Where wanderlust finds
   a measureless trail
When a hand holds yours
   in gentle swing with your step
Where there is room
   to make fresh tracks in snow
When two warm breaths
   curl and converse in the cold
Where and when
   don't matter so, no
When it comes, it comes
   where you must go, you go

Where harmonies shift
   and tremble your heart
When all that could be said
   is lost on your tongue
Where there is peace
   before time moves once again
When every star burns
   and you wonder at the night
Where and when
   don't matter so, no
When dreams come
   hold fast to some, let others go

Where a storm moved trees
   and tangled their roots
When the kind, easy world
   is estranged from you
Where wrinkles are left
   from the troubles you've known
When a break in the clouds
   threatens to close
Where and when
   don't matter so, no
When trust comes, it is earned
   but when it goes, it goes

Where tulips kiss
   the tears on your cheek
When two foreheads touch
   and your eyes close
Where you imagine fingers
   touch you neck to toe
When every movement made
   is in love's undertow
Where and when
   don't matter so, no
When it comes, it stands
   and is not easily let go
