Fading Echoes

In this waking dawn
I felt the edges of a dream
Slipping past my feeble fingers, tantalizing me;
I cannot remember who you were or how it seemed–
I have not forgotten how it felt to be complete

So I tried to catch the fragments
But there’s no trying anymore
It was such a fleeting moment
But I touched you once before

So bring me to the surface of my mind
I am drowning in the sands of time
Lost among illusions in my eyes
When reality and dreams collide
Only then will I decide
To chase their fading echoes to the skies

Maybe they will carry me on through
Maybe they will carry me to you
