flight 5319
lyrics by janejane; music, composition and performed by willbur

we flew above a lightning storm
we watched as the clouds came alive
our own private light show
illuminating the sky

storms come and storms they go
come along and enjoy the show

we dozed off with a winter song
looping gently in our ears
it was a bumpy ride
but we just kept dreaming on

storms come and storms they go
come along and enjoy the show

there’s a calm before the storm they say
so i look up at the blue expanse

the city skyline creates a jagged jawline
the clouds form freckles
(from too much moon?)
the wind hushes my footsteps
the sun escapes between the cracks of branches
dripping onto my face and just as quickly evaporating
as soon as i wipe my forehead with my hankie

tomorrow!  tomorrow who knows?
