So can you glimpse into my soul?

Do the words written there intrigue you,

make you ponder, and wonder,

if I'm someone you know?





Perhaps in another life

you've seen me in anothers eyes

or heard me in a song

the words you did not know

from long ago

yet today

they speak to you in a way

so hauntingly...familiar

whisper your life to your surprise





Can you hear the distant thunder baby?

Does it caress a deep part of your soul

that others, long to visit

yet still remains untouched

As only me holds the key?





Do you wake in the night

to a sweat and a sight

before your eyes in a mirror

that is only regret

longing for the words

Once more to touch you again?

Have we met before?





Possibly you will dismiss

as deja-vu

this song that speaks

directly to you

and yet,

someday

maybe in a different place

when you see me

the look on your face

will cause us both to stare

as we both will be aware

we've sang this tune...before
