Tonight should syllables fail you
Like soldiers gone AWOL
Struggling for voice to whisper why
Fear never that you are not heard
Your laughter echoes round the canyons
Of my heart and the black hill mountains
Where a coyote cries 'neath the moon
And the songs you did sing
In your classic Cabaret
Will be lifted like a glass of fine Cabernet
To fall from our lips
With the sultry sway of hips
Springing up steps dripping with sweat
Sweltering on a disco dancefloor
Alive for all time is the sound
Of hello after too long an absence
Needing less of sentences
And more of entrances
In and out of the braided brotherhood
That we wove with love's embrace
You are not a stilled voice
In a stranger's face
You are beauty and love
Long heard above
The silence that separates
Our comprehension
Of no explanation
Of how a thief in the night
Somehow thinks it right
Leaving me no words
Leaving us no reason
Leaving dangling paticiples
And our endless intentions
Of always having a friendship
That requires no spoken words
