Long way home

Tell me where the shadows of time stand still
Take me to that place where monuments of our lives hide
It’s such a long way home.

On the far side of the mountain’s morning shines
Like a child’s eyes and the stars are so close
You can reach into the sky and touch them.

Do you know where it is
And can you take me there ?
It’s such a long way home.

Today I saw the eagles fly in the memory of a dream
They painted the sky with whispers of times long past
And they watched me as I searched for the far side of the mountain
Where the shadows of time stand still.

Maybe they were showing me the way.

The subway is crowded with ghosts of yesterday
Wearing feathered hats and high heel shoes
And the lights flicker creating a passageway
To the streets above.

Sweet child in the window holding mothers hand
As the evening comes to an end mother smiles
And watches as the train pulls away.

And here I am
It’s such a long way home.
