Days of Longing
Through days of longing I see
The heaviest burdens of endless wait
Through days of longing I see
The futility of a worthy plight
I, as the desert dweller
In search of oasis to swim
I, as the lone falconer
My bird has lost to stronger scream
Through days of wanting I long
To build a home, my home
Through days of wanting I long
To wear a crown, my own
I, as the lone peasant
In search of life and livin'
I, as the forsaken prince
In search of throne and queen
Through days of longing
The flowers grow wild and free
Dark and light their battles win
In the days of wanting I see
(10/06/1983)
