The Book

Paul Meadows

Go to that place we loved, our secret place,

Close your eyes and you’ll see my face.

Play that tune, the tune we loved to hear,

Close your eyes and you’ll see me clear.

Walk on the beach or climb to the top of a hill,

Close your eyes and you’ll see me still.

Take a sip of wine, of dark red wine,

Close your eyes and you’ll see me fine.

At night go out and look at the brightest star,

Close your eyes and you’ll see me far.

On a day when the sky is blue and cold and clear

Close your eyes and you’ll see me near.

Take down a book that would have been my choice,

Open the book, close your eyes. You’ll hear my voice.
