Cobblestone Clouds
Soaring high and humming low
 Beautiful robes around heaven's shoulders
 Flowing across the wide, bright blue
 Shrinking the space between me and you
 
 With the cool autumn dawn
 I send my love from across the Pond
 I miss you, my dear
 You know it is true
 The warmth inside my heart 
 lets me know you miss me, too
 
 Wispy threads pull the silky patches together
 reminding me of the cold London streets
 where we used to talk about life
 Where clasped hands spoke
 our minds in Morse code
 
 Spending the days walking along the whitewashed cliffs
 side by side, hand in hand, one soul
 Wasting nights on the balcony 
 counting the angels looking down from above
 
 Now that I am so far away
 No one walks with you
 The balcony weeps for company
 and you lie in pieces
 
 It may seem as though I am gone forever
 but we, my darling, share a special bond
 Hold me in your heart as I hold you in mine,
 savoring the memories locked inside
 
 Letters may travel across the world
 but can never enter the heart
 like the presence of a loved one
 This lesson I have learned very well
 My love, wait for me
 Time will pass
 and we will be united
 
 When you feel lonely,
 step onto our balcony and listen
 The wind whispers our story
 The ocean sings our song
 Reminding you, my sweet,
 it will not be long
 
 I will gather up my love
 and place it in the air
 Hoping the jet stream
 will ensure my arrival there
 
 One day you will awaken
 step outside and see
 Before Big Ben strikes noon
 you will be with me
 
 That bright spring morning
 you will hear my call
 My name spoken in your sweet voice
 will end the captain's stall
 
 Hearing your name from harbor
 my voice calling loud
 I see you coming
 pushing through the crowd
 
 Our wait ends
 This moment transcends
 above all others 
 
 Our love weathered the distance
 and survived the test of time
 From now until forever
 you will always be mine
 
 Finally we are together
 There is no more space
 between me and you
 
 Meeting on the cliffs
 where we first kissed
 Caressed by cobblestone clouds
