Better Together

"Better Together"

There is no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard

No song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart

Our dreams, and they are made out of real things

Like a, shoebox of photographs

With sepia-toned loving

Love is the answer,

At least for most of the questions in my heart

Like why are we here? And where do we go?

And how come it's so hard?

It's not always easy and

Sometimes life can be deceiving

I'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together

I believe in memories

They look so, so pretty when I sleep

Hey now, and when I wake up,

You look so pretty sleeping next to me

But there is not enough time,

And there is no, no song I could sing

And there is no combination of words I could say

But I will still tell you one thing

We're better together.

 

Thanks Jack Johnson for the song and the reminder that indeed Mary and I are better together. The picture is from Dec 30. There is no snow now. I remember this time as a happy time, snowshoeing on our favorite track, Boykan, the brown dog is somewhere. Warm and tired.
