Wrapped in gossamer light
Wrapped in blue velvet and silk
Gently your memory rests
In a quiet corner of my heart.
You may not want to be there.
I left so long ago --
We let the silence build and now
No moments left for words unsaid.
So – my choice:
Out of conscious thought,
Wrapped in gossamer light
Wrapped in blue velvet and silk
Gently your memory rests
In a quiet corner of my heart.
