Lost In An Echo
Standing at the station
the future ours to see
waiting,
anticipating,
Lost in the translation
are the eyes of tomorrow
and the promises of today
the question remains,
Will she stay?
No stop sign!
No speed limit!
Green light flashing
heartbeat racing
thoughts out of control,
Lost in the moment
are past barriers broken
and tomorrow's cloud cover
yet, the question remains
before it started,
Is it over?
I hear the engine roaring
feel my heart pounding
hands shaking
body trembling,
Lost without a clue
are tomorrow's dreams
and yesterday's blues
the question remains,
Is this front page news?
The whistle stops,
no turning back
nowhere to run
nowhere to hide,
Lost in a voice, hollowed
All aboard!
Next stop,
Tomorrow.
Questions never answered
she didn't show,
Lost in an echo.
