Monkey Bar The Stars

i want to monkey-bar the stars back to you
and hold you in my arms.
i want to touch my hand to the sunset,
and bring you back the stars.

and if the skies won’t lead me
to the one i miss tonight,
may the Painter of the skies
lead me by His light.

into the fog i will ride,
hoping that i someday might find,
the beauty who has my heart
far away on the other side.
hoping that i someday might find,
the beauty who has my heart
far away on the other side.

so many people i will pass
on my way back through
this town that is lonely now
without you.

and not one will turn my head,
and no beauty will be the one.
till i have found you at my side
i will not be done.

i want to monkey-bar the stars back to you
and hold you in my arms.
i want to touch my hand to the sunset,
and bring you back the stars.

i will travel the ocean vast,
till i have found you at last.
and i will give you the stars,
that have brought me so far.

for tonight i am not complete,
as i sit alone and write to the woman i miss,
and i cannot hear the ocean waves
till i have painted her with a kiss.

i am chasing and i am racing.
i am chasing and i am free.
i am chasing and i am racing,
for the woman of my dreams…
