Someday Maybe
Someday's Embrace: A Poetic Anthem of Love and Loss
Lyrics
If you want to burn it down
If you desire to destroy it
I'll hand you the match
I will provide you with the means
The flags of our fathers
The symbols representing our predecessors
Don't need gasoline to catch
Do not require fuel to ignite
Let's kiss till we're sick
Let's engage in passionate kisses until we are unwell
And laugh till we're hoarse
And share laughter until our voices are strained
Louder than the boots as they
Louder than the footsteps as they march into another conflict
March to another war
What is left when,
What remains when
The laughter ends?
The laughter concludes?
All we are
Our existence is
Is what we remember
Defined by what we can recall
All we lose
All we forfeit
Is only what we surrender
Is solely what we yield willingly
Someday may be here already
Perhaps the future is already present
Don't count on tomorrow's sun to come
Do not rely on the arrival of tomorrow's sunlight
Someday maybe here already
Perhaps the future is already present
I'll wait for you
I will wait for you
In shades of truth
In the nuances of truth
Let's stand in the cold
Let's endure the cold together
Our backs to the wind
With our backs against the wind
Let's keep each other warm
Let's provide warmth for each other
Face to face and skin to skin
Face to face and intimately close
