Now You've Gone

I see someone like you
In sweeping summer rain
And nothing I could do
Would fix my heart again.

A stranger's eyes flash fire
Of lost romantic chance
The chaos of our lives
And broken circumstance.

I dream of you at night
Your spirit haunts my slumber
The ocean of your soul
Now holds and pulls me under.

Sometimes I wake up in the morning
And then reach out to touch your hair,
In the light of a new day dawning -
To find you've vanished into the air.
