Tomorrow's Escape (1992)



Lay down your tender heart
Release the tether on your soul
Spin into spontaneity
unbound from the righteous chains
Climb toward the crest of the silken Moon
Feel the ease of your years
for Time has seized what it will
and while Tomorrow eludes Today
Run for the summit of Life's rewards
'till your last breath collides with Eternity
Then you shall tumble
in painless disregard
into your tender heart
with a lofty, spirited freedom
Your soul will sail an infinite voyage
through Time's cascade
of Yesterday's harbors, and Today's jagged reefs
that is where we will meet again
beyond where Tomorrow's escape
