Night after night you dreamed of her. You wanted to return to the dream once you woke, but when you did she wasn't there again, just that sharp piercing overwhelming heart pain. You bought her the box set of Mahler's 6th,, wrapped it with a pink bow, not a man thing, but well, you know. In her eyes you saw a new world: blue skies, puffy clouds, sun's light pouring down, and sadly men that drown. You loved her lips when speaking or still, the redness or paleness, the kissing from and of them, which none can condemn. You embraced her in dreams and for real, her body close to yours. Arms encircling, hands touch, words spoken, but not overmuch. Night after night you dreamed of her, kissing, making love, holding hands, but that was then in what you called, never ever lands.

NIGHT AFTER NIGHT 1974.
Night after night you dreamed of her. You wanted to return to the dream once you woke, but when you did she wasn't there again, just that sharp piercing overwhelming heart pain. You bought her the box set of Mahler's 6th,, wrapped it with a pink bow, not a man thing, but well, you know. In her eyes you saw a new world: blue skies, puffy clouds, sun's light pouring down, and sadly men that drown. You loved her lips when speaking or still, the redness or paleness, the kissing from and of them, which none can condemn. You embraced her in dreams and for real, her body close to yours. Arms encircling, hands touch, words spoken, but not overmuch. Night after night you dreamed of her, kissing, making love, holding hands, but that was then in what you called, never ever lands.
A MAN AND LOVER 1974.
