Between There and Here

You called out my name

“Bring me some water, my love”

And it all felt the same

As any other night of my life

We lived at home back then

It still feels like home in my sleep

I woke to dark again

But for a moment

It was you and me

You’re a piece of a dream now

Just a little too far

I can still hear your voice through

The door left ajar

But can’t see where you are

By the murmuring TV

You’d fall asleep to in bed

You sat and looked at me

I said I miss you

You said, “I know.”

The pictures that I’ve framed

Don’t tell the stories in between

The moments that contain

Who you were really to me

You’re a piece of a dream now

Just a little too far

I can still hear your voice through

The door left ajar

I guess that’s how it is now –

The only place you’ll appear

We’ll have to meet in some shadow

Between there and here

But it’s so good to see you

It’s so good to see you

See you again

You’re a piece of a dream now

Just a little too far

I can still hear your voice through

The door left ajar

I guess that’s how it is now –

The only place you’ll appear

We’ll have to meet in some shadow

Between there and here
