Diana Krall and the World of Love

Oh, lamp turned off
I keep using the inside
of my eyes to find you.
The whole busy
world of you dances there.
.
Vision of the future
strange new neighborhood
one who says hello from the sidewalk
constructing undefined hopes,
when there used to be
time for it.
.
Do you wait and long like me,
wait for someone to appear at the door?
Is it someone whose footsteps you remember?
.
Oh great out there,
is there some way to quiet my sentiment?
I waited for a future that never came.
I think I saw the limit of the earth.
