Oasis

I've dreamed a thousand times over,

Of a place made just for me.

A sunny little island,

somewhere I can be free.

But I can't…

I'll always have a listening ear,

I'll never be alone.

And yet I'll always,

have a house, to call home.

It's not possible…

I'll live in the way,

that I deem most right.

I'll bathe in the beauty,

of my inner light.

I'm not worth it…

I'll never have to fear

I'll always speak my mind.

Someone will love me

A man warm and kind…

That'll never happen…

That place is not fantasy or even very far…

For the place it starts to grow

Is right here

In the heart.

So you say…

You must first change your inside

In order to change you out

Shelve all your worries,

bury all your doubts...

And soon you'll find your island

And that sandy shore

Where you can be true

Forevermore…
