At Long Last I Have Found Her
I’ve been searching for you for some time now
My lover, my lady
The woman who resides in my mind
For far too long you have left me
I have looked for you in our usual places
Yet there is no trace of you
I’ve traveled over the great expanse
Only when we are face to face will I be through
Why it was here I don’t really know
My subconscious keeps more secrets than me
I found myself in a luxurious hotel room
A foreign land was all I could see from my balcony
The room was large, expensive, and old
Something from Italy or Paris
There I was all by my lonesome
Thinking of you out at night on my terrace
Then in one quick moment you came up behind me
Just as if you had always been there
Holding only a bed sheet to cover your body
Against the comfortable but slight chill of the air
You held me close with your arm
The other was clutching your sheet
You laid down your head on the back of my shoulder
The smell of your fragrance was calming and sweet
At first all we could do was stand there
Basking in the sounds of the city
I turned around to behold you at last
The conclusion to my long searching journey
There are truly no words to describe you
But in my feeble capacity I will try
You are nothing short of majestic
Your uplifting spirit makes me feel as if I could fly
In the mix of the evening and firelight
Coming from the hearth back inside
Any angel would be put to feel deepest envy
For the beautiful woman who stood at my side
The look in your eyes left no question
Of what you would have me to do
Standing up on your toes reaching to kiss me
Your sheet dropped to the floor of the room
Taking you up in my arms I crossed to the bed
Where I lay you down with the greatest of care
And we stepped out of time as our souls reconnected
How the time passed we would not be aware
I’d say that perhaps you don’t know just what
The effect that you have on my life
One look in my eyes is all you need know
There is no one else in the world that lives in my sight
For several days it is us making love as we please
Secluded in our palace of skin, sheets, and love
I would have Paradise wait for me to arrive
For I would stay here instead of my place up above
My lover, my lady
The woman who resides in my mind
For far too long you have left me
I have looked for you in our usual places
Yet there is no trace of you
I’ve traveled over the great expanse
Only when we are face to face will I be through
Why it was here I don’t really know
My subconscious keeps more secrets than me
