Dakota - Robert Francis

Light shines off rivers flowing through

Every part of me

Wanting every part you

Soft and simple veins make a stain

Or find a dream

If I was the one, maybe I could feel your pain

And the water boils while the night is on fire

I patiently wait like a bird on a wire

Your dreams are made of fear while sleep surrounds us

Tunnels changing lanes oh summarize your pain inside a school bus

Summer fall, October ends

Shadows, odds and ends

Winter won’t pretend

Oh I know I’ll see you again

The wind blows you and me

Catching teardrops in the leaves

Oh I don’t believe that every night I feel you breathe

And the tension boils like sailors close to home

Time is black, but you assume I’ll be alone

Fate does tempt itself a game of cat and mouse

It soon will find us

And anything we need

God knows the devil could precede

In denying us
