As Big As The Sky

By Bruce Clifford

All these years
With all these fears
Each passing day
Every word you say

In the night
When all seems right
There’s no escape
There’s no other way

When I dream of the past
All the memories that couldn’t last
Every vision that keeps rushing by
They hit me as big as the sky
When memories come at me and I don't know why
They rush through my head as big as the sky

All of this time
Each treasure we would find
On a course to collide
I never could understand why

When I dream of the past
All those moments are gone in a flash
Each memory has left me with the will to survive
And I will always love you as big as the sky
I don’t think I will ever understand why
I will always love you as big as the sky
