Heartaway

If I thought about it for a short time
I could come up with a reason to believe
That you and I would take that climb
To the heights that I couldn’t conceive


We could step out in the cool autumn night
And glide through the blanket of breezes
I would embrace your soul with all my might
And give you all that I have that pleases


Let’s set sail away upon the seas of life
Head straight into the wind and hang on tight
Cut through the waves like a sharpened knife
And keep on going deep into the night


Or jump aboard my black iron horse
Strap on our bonnets and put on our shades
Fill up the tank and plot a new course
Follow that road until all fear fades


Maybe take a ride on sleek golden jet
That takes us away to places unknown
Flying high above all the regret
Enjoying the play the clouds have shown


So let’s pack a bag and make the plans
For a trip that will take years and years
You’ll have all of me and these two hands
To cradle your heart so the bad disappears
