Knowing You

It’s like catching the rays of the sun

With your face on a rather dull day

And riding the strength that surges through.

It’s like running a mile and picking

An overdose of second wind

And cruising to the heart of the moon.

Knowing you, knowing your name, your fame,

Knowing your ups and downs and your gains,

Is to live where the sky is always blue.
