You Again - Richard Shindell

You again

I dreamed of you again

This time you seemed so real

Winking back at me

My old friend

I feel your ghost again

When I thought you’d gone for real

I’d never say for good

Not I catch my breath and wait

Wide-eyed and half awake

Just the wind

Blows through my dreams again

Thought I had closed the window tight

Against the night

Now I catch my breath and wait

Wide-eyed and wide awake

But you are half a world away

And there is little now that I can say

But that I will always love you

And I’ll always miss

And you are always welcome here

You are always welcome here
