It's a lonely road upon which i travel
and i know not what lies ahead
uncertainty waits around every bend
each twist and turn fills me with dread

i was once sure-footed, making this journey
there were signs and markers along the way
i've lost my compass and companion
and can't distinguish night from day

more arduous are the hills and valleys
while every stride seems twice as long
within my words i still find comfort
but i've lost the music to my song

the melody drove me to madness
when you stopped singing harmony
you lost the meaning of music
so, now, who will accompany me?

somewhere a song is being sung
just longing for that kindred voice
and should i find that perfect note.
i'll sing along...for i have no choice

perhaps someday two paths will cross
whose travlers shall sing as one
melody and harmony converging perfectly
to beautiful to ever be undone

we'll put together our words and music
then, two halves a whole, we'll sing along
and we will walk this path harmonious
completeing each other...completing our song

but for now i walk this empty road
at times i write, other times i still sing
not knowing when i'll hear the voice of love
all along the way i'll be listening.
