Pebble

I throw a pebble in the lake And watch the circles disappear, I see the sunshine rise and fall And I wish that you were here. I watch the amber glowing water As the evening turns to gold, On the bank I feel so lonely For my dreams I cannot hold. I never want to go back home For the memories are too strong, It is there that I'll remember The life we shared there for so long. So I'll stay here for the moment Till it's time for me to go, I will let the starlight guide me And by morning I shall know. As I listen to the silence Thoughts are running through my head, Trying to pass away the hours I long to be with you instead.
