Sunbeam

​

I'd love to be a ray of sun,
just beaming down from outer space.
I think that we could have some fun
and put a smile back on your face.

I'd love to be a bird on high
and wing my way through skies of blue,
or, better yet, a butterfly,
go sailing into dreams of you.

I'd love to see you one more time,
to hold you closely, oh, so near,
to sing for you another rhyme,
forget the loneliness and fear.

I'd want to live my life with you,
to share this love that I still feel,
but dreams of mine never come true.
These fantasies, I know, aren't real.
