On bed now, eyes on ceiling
Wondering, caring
What’s next?
Darkness comes in, caressing
Heavy eyelids falling
What’s up?
Found myself inside car driving
White dusty road before me speeding
What’s goin’ on?
A reflection on my rear view mirror eyeing
Man on a tricycle overtaking
What then?
Steps on gas accelerating
Gone is he, smiling
What now?
Lovely streets, impressive homes, gardens flowering,
People walking, chatting, laughing
What’s goin’ on?
Saw a man goin’ upstairs frowning,
Seemingly familiar spying
And then?
Yeah I know him, hurrying
Breath gasping, looking
Oh yeah?
People all about, he’s nowhere, losing
Suddenly darkness gone, light shinning,
And then?
Seeking, recalling
T’was my papa passing by, longing
Oh really?
Only a dream realizing
What its meaning
Good Lord!
