The Oracle

I am the Oracle you seek, the prince of waters flowing all through the ages. Soul enchantress close your eyes & sleep. I've walked the hallways of your soul, in fields of dreams I felt the wings of an angel. Melanie, do you remember me? I am the stranger from the well, on white horse riding gallant, the ghost of Valhalla. The immortal child of Zaatar. The golden dawn, the chosen one, the prophet, the oracle's son.
Oh princess of the shining flame, wings tipped god's hourglass & shattered the ages. Spirits pass through wind chimes singing, the orphan songs to lonely ones a harem of angels sing.
Within the palace of my gaze, your subtle glances flutter like wings of a butterfly. Child of Lilith you belong to me. I am the stranger from the well, you are my nightingale, the girl from the woodlocks. Unlatch the window, hear my serenade. You are the one, my golden dawn, the moon & the stars & the sun. You are the one, my golden dawn, the moon & the stars & the sun.

And the reason we laugh is for one day well cry
Like the reason we live is for one day we'll die
And the reason we give is cause one day we'll steal
here's a song for a world that can't feel.
She was once a good friend of mine
we would gather up stones & we'd laugh all the time
she'd paint pictures & maps of the stars & her eyes
would fill up the night
She was once a lover of mine
we would sit in her garden & drink all her wine
blow out candles & talk about god in the dark
then we'd sleep in the yard
And the reason we laugh is for one day well cry
Like the reason we live is for one day we'll die
And the reason we give is cause one day we'll steal
here's a song for a world that can't feel.
Winter came & it carried no torch
it just fogged up the windows & stood on the porch
The flower she planted is hiding it's face as it bends
and dies in the wind
And the lantern lit up our room
as we drew all the tarots & cast all the runes
then she'd take down her hair & she'd lay in my arms
cause that's where she belonged
And the reason we laugh is for one day well cry
Like the reason we live is for one day we'll die
And the reason we give is cause one day we'll steal
here's a song for a world that can't feel.
She was once a soul mate of mine
'till she packed up her clothing, her books & her wine
she wrote me a note that said
"Oh, honey don't cry, but I can't say goodbyes"
And the sun went down early that day as the stars
came out twinkling like demons at play
and tears fill my eyes when I think of the words you can't say Like "Why did you go away?"
And the reason we laugh is for one day well cry
Like the reason we live is for one day we'll die
And the reason we give is cause one day we'll steal
here's a song for a world that can't feel.

I saw her running through a field
chasing dragonflies
then lying in a bed of clovers
she closed her haunted eyes
As evening shadows crept around her
lying in the wedding gown she found
in that old empty house
on the other side of town
In this feather box I keep
the golden locket that she dropped
I take it out before I sleep & place it in my pocket
in hopes that it will summon her to me
& she will slip into my sleeping
to kiss me in my haunted dreams
& snatch the golden locket
She paints a picture in a field
I hide behind the water mill
then watch the canvas soon reveal
a figure wandering silent
she paints a child inside his eyes
she lays the brush down as she cries
I’m sorry that he had to die
but it’s too late for now he’s passed to the other side

I wished on a star
wrote you a song
gave you a book of poems
I built a throne for you
I took you away
covered your eyes
tried to drink all your sorrows
I laid hands on you
If I'd known the truth
that you were only seeking refuge
and my world was new
yes my world seemed far less cruel
I'd not have bartered my days
for my world would also come to age
and you'd go away
Back to his arms,
for now they're warm
the place where you belong
I saw you today, you were outside
saw you in your garden
through the yellow windows of the evening bus
I said to my friend, you were the one
who taught me to say "I love you"
but now I can't say "trust".
But you knew the truth,
I was building worlds around you
I could not hear you cry
for I placed you on a throne far too high
So I could not see you fall
So there was no way for me to ever catch you
While my back was turned
You had flown, back to his arms
the place where you belong.
I'm alone on this stage
where love had been played
curtains close, you're in your home
I close the show for you
I'll pack up the dream
lock up that room
take off all of my makeup
I built a throne for you
"We" knew the truth,
that we were only seeking refuge
Our would seemed new
now our world seems just as cruel
as we've bartered our days in vein
for our world would also come to age
and you'd go away... back to his arms
for now they're warm.
The place where you belong.
I wished on a star
wrote you a song
gave you a book of poems
I built a throne for you
