Jimmie Dale Gilmore – One Endless Night

One Endless night

So very long ago

Close as the moment

I held someone

To be the last

To be the only one

For all and everything

One Endless night.

When you awoke

And told me of your dream

The waves that rolled across

The starry skies

And broke upon

Your heart and disappeared

And promised everything

One Endless night.

I see you now

And I suppose

Everything’s changed and rearranged

But no-one knows

The why or how

Or if it might

Be what depends on how it ends

One Endless night.

Your gift to me

Is nothing I can hold

The silence fades away

To find the song.

This, too, shall pass

We two and everything

And this your gift to me

One Endless night.

This is your gift to me

One Endless night.
