Something from Nothing

Once there was nothing
Once there was all to gain
The start of a something
The start of this wax and waning

Clear conversation
Reving through rpm’s
Then letting it go
A slow to shine chemistry

What I wouldn’t do
To re-live decisions made, then
When I hadn’t a clue
Now that memory’s precision has
Faded there’s more than I realized
Blind to what could become of these shores
Sailing off and away here I’m missing you
A beauty that burns through closed doors
Calling me as before

A smile in reflection
Into what once could be
A deep felt connection
Will always remain between us

Chorus

Something from nothing (4x)

instrumental

Sailing off and away here I’m missing you
A beauty that burns through closed doors
