today is the highway

Is the grass still growin green upon the meadow,
Is the sand still soft where the tidal rivers flow—
Do the redwoods ever ask you where Ive been
Do they ask you where went their lonely friend?
Please tell them for me I still remember them.
Please tell them they taught me what I know.

I remember that night I walked the floor,
From nowhere your face was at my door—
You brought to me a joy words cant explain,
As if your presence was a feeling without a name.
My love, it is a night I still remember,
When your breathin stole the sound from the oceans roar.

Do you see my face in the rain thats fallin freely,
Do you hear my voice in the whisperin of the trees—
Do you taste my love in a glass of wine,
Do you touch your heart and feel the beat of mine?
Upon this darkened roadway your love will always shine,
For today is the highway and tomorrow is the time.
