Ruminations 2

(a)

i hope that there will be

A happy ending in this for me

As far as I can see

We’re heading to hell

(a)

I’m lost inside a dream

Where your self respect extends to me

And as we gather steam

Its getting harder to tell

(b)

The wall holds a picture frame

Me I look just the same

But under the surface there are

Secrets I can’t keep

(b)

I feel myself slipping in

To the fool I once was again

And all of my closest friends

Are saying I should flee

(d)

I’m feeling a lot on my way to Camelot

(a) which is like A but repeated

Yellow leaved lily

Trembling in the chilly

Ale that is holding her

Delicately

(c)

It’s choppy water

Watch our favorite daughter

As she moves farther

Into her misery

(b)

Whitened willows shiver

A snow storm will deliver

Icy little slivers (silent solace in the night time

Where she thinks she can hide

(b)

An angel singing clearly

Her pearl garland seems to be

Bubbles in the glass she has

Now the river’s running fast

(d)

lady of shalot on her way to Camelot
(a)

A mirror reflecting

Who she once was again

& she can take a lot

She’s the lady of shalott

(a)

So I hope that there can be

A velvet bed that waits for me

(tho) Misty do I see

I know not what my curse may be


And all that I can see

It is not to be believed

As I lay me down to sleep

Floating down the stream


I feel it in my knees

And on the night’s warm breeze

As I am traveling

Toward my destiny


I’m the lady of shallot

On her way to Camelot
