A Lonely Quiet

It was quiet today
a lonely quiet
my love didn't wake me with her soft voice
and good deeds
I tried to follow her directions, but got lost
a feeling came over me,
don't want to feel that way again
a secret sadness of what if's
was it all a dream?
the sweetness of her lips
her soft skin and warm smile
her simple view of freedom

All that she wants is to be happy,
as tears flow down her cheeks
I'll do my best baby
try as hard as I can
to understand your dreams
and make them come true.
