So what is alone..

Truly in a crowd of people I can be so alone and so content

Maybe it was the fact that Rod taught me to talk to myself

Today I'm with Suzanne as she takes me down to the river

I'm in a calm space while the worlds stresses out.

I do want to travel with the sun through seasons

And in the silence I want to reach out with my mind and

Embrace the body of a lover who will escape at dawn.

Then the streetlights will be dimming with the sunrise

And I'll walk along side the river by myself, alone and yet not.
