A Day By The Lake

I  am  back  at  last  from  yearning  slumber

when  the  nightly  drama  came  to  a  close

(Hoping  that  fall  will  never  come)

Salute  the  morning  sun

Inviting  us  to  idleness

(Hoping  that  fall  will  never  come)

The  hour  calls  for  secrecy

silently  we＇d  slip  out  to  the  lake

(Hoping  that  fall  will  never  come)

And  I  stumble  as  of  vertigo

Can＇t  await  the  sound  of  gentle  waves

melting  with  the  rhythm  of  our  crave.

But  today  there  are  only  elegies

Filling  our  tainted  elysium

(Still  hoping  that  fall  will  never  come)

This  place  turned  to  a  fraud  mirage

(This  place  turned  to  a  fraud  mirage)

Deceitful  and  untrue.

(Still  hoping  that  fall  will  never  come)

Embraces  solace  me

They  hide  my  tears  in  pastel  drapery

(Still  hoping  that  fall  will  never  come)

And  I  cry  just  as  you

Knowing,  this  is  coming  to  an  end

But  still  I  am  hoping  that  fall  will  never  come.

But  it  came.
