Life After Beth

                Inside the oceans of sweet dreams

                there's places you can't run nor walk

                and you get caught up in a stream

                on a slumber boat of scattered thoughts

                You see a face there you adore

                and she offers you her breast

                you reach for her but she's no more

                oh she looked so much like Beth



                I live with memories locked in mind

                since I laid her soul to rest.

                and my heart aches for a time,

                a time, for life after Beth.



                The search for inner peace of mind

                on the narrow trail to light

                comes with a rough and rocky climb

                through passages of love and strife.

                You find a goal to set you free

                to share until the shades of death

                and you give your soul to your needs

                but you give your heart to Beth



                I live with memories locked in mind

                since I laid her soul to rest.

                and my heart aches for a time,

                a time, for life after Beth.



                This is strictly ficticious!
