Shaking A Dream For Me
In consideration of twilight's sleep
imaginary numbers in an hourglass
watching the shadows quadrille
to a stringless tambourine
shaking a dream for me
in my mind's dark Do-si-do
putting all memories in one basket
with one grain of sand in hand
to slowly seep between fingers
and then comes the crickets,
singing Auld Lang Syne
straight out of oblivion
in an endless melancholy
shaking a dream for me
imaginary numbers in an hourglass
watching the shadows quadrille
to a stringless tambourine
shaking a dream for me
in my mind's dark Do-si-do
putting all memories in one basket
with one grain of sand in hand
to slowly seep between fingers
and then comes the crickets,
singing Auld Lang Syne
straight out of oblivion
in an endless melancholy
shaking a dream for me
