Already There

The stars aren't aligned

Just yet

For me.

I'm thrilled beyond

My wildest day dreams

Of fishing up

On cloud nine,

That you still want to stay-

That you still stay

With me.

And I'm still stuck

With my own

Ball and chain,

Still trying

To figure things out-

And here you are

With me,

Just the same.

I don't know

What it is

I could ever

Possibly give you,

Aside from just empty air,

That makes you

Want to stay

With me.

But my dear,

You make me

Want to be better,

To hold

Something golden

And bright

In my hands.

But you also

Make me feel like

I'm already doing just fine...

Just with worn hands

Holding empty air,

That wish only to hold yours

And nothing else.

I mean,

You're here

As I'm still fishing up

On cloud nine.

Maybe you just

May bring me luck

To catch a star

To guide me back home.

But really,

The view

Just got so much more beautiful

With you here

With me...

Who knows?

Maybe we're already there.
