WRAPPED IN EACH OTHER'S DREAMS

 

When two people love each other

It’s like the confluence of two streams..

and the two of you immediately begin making memories

wrapped in each other’s dreams.

 

You feel happy, safe and comfortable inside your blanket

just the two of you

but as you add family and friends you find how easily

your blanket wraps around them too.

 

And you discover life is even happier and more exciting too

as the blanket of dreams they brought with them 

wraps around you too.

 

And from this confluence of dreams you find

you’re happy with the direction your life is taking…

with the path your heart has chosen 

with the memories you’re making.

 

Memories once made…you forever want to keep

so your mind finds a quiet place…a peaceful room

and tucks each on safely off to sleep.

 

Until your rivers meet up again

and, as you’re sitting on the shore,

a word or sentence spoken or a smile

wakes up a memory you’ve shared before.

 

And you find there is no place you’d rather be

than seated by that stream…

sharing a memory you’ve made together

while wrapped in each other’s dreams.
