I am the girl
Through your mind
That lives in your heart
The ancient pain
That ran through your veins
The ancestor you just met
I search for your heart to realize what love is
I know the heart
Of what use to be
I am the arm at your need
I am the eye
That makes you see reality
My breath tingling your mind
My blodd flows with yours
Combines into a river
My spirit wanders your inner soul
A chance to sink in
Buzzing with memories
Singing a melody
I will always love you until we die

Like a story echoing through the minds
Of youth sitting under the trees
My mind flows like the breeze
Drifting softly rustling the leaves
Like dancers moving gracefully across the floor
My blood's wine runs smoothly
Gracing lips with its taste
Like a dream rapturing you slowly
With things you've never before seen
The universe a song never ending
For eager young ones happily singing
My heart is a cold dark past
It shatters mirrors to shards of sadness
My breath a whisper from the lips of a lover
Down the gentle ear of another

As the flat vibration comes from his voice
A minor phrase scatters
The harmony becomes fuzz
And the tone measure goes up
I feel my beat treble
As I wait for an answer
The rhythm is sharp
As the mode becomes major
I blow the pitch of his voice
Make his note scat
The conduct changes on a downbeat
counter point is resonant
And the mind is a rock
The bar scale goes weak
And modulates to melody meter. . . .
We find the key
Groove in chorus concert

The river flows like her shiny black hair
When the sun comes up and shines
Her hair reflecting in my eyes
Like smoke from pipes
It flows nowhere but everywhere
Like my mind flows
The river has no end to it
My blood flows like freeways
The cars are like my blood, always moving
My blood always rushing
Through my body
Like the universe
Flowing like the river the earth
Always traveling but getting to nowhere
My heart reflects my childhood
Like the river and universe
