TREASURED ILLUSIONS

Copyright 1996

by Margo M. Granfors

Wanderin' down this lonesome road

I look at the sky and I wonder.

Did I imagine your voice on the wind

Or in the distant thunder?

Ahhh-- Ahhh--

 

 

I'd love to see you in the desert sun,

Dressed as a pillar of fire.

Above all others, you're the only one

To fill my heart's desire.

 

 

I'm on my knees; I call your name;

But you never answer.

Will you still love me when I fall,

Or do you really care at all?

 

 

When time was new, it was easy to give

Your divine intervention!

But now you're gone; tell me how to live

Without your love & attention?

 

 

I'm on my knees; I call your name;

But you never answer.

Why did you go so far away?

Can you hear a word I say?

 

 

The world is gettin' more like hell everyday

Consumed in greed and confusion.

Did you fail, are you dead, or did you run away?

Are you my treasured illusion?

 

 

I'm on my knees;

I call your name;

But you never answer.

Oh, can you hear me when I call?

Are you really there at all?
