Awhile…

Hi.

How you doing?

It’s been awhile

since we talked.

Glad to hear you’re doing well.

You tell me lots of surface things

But all that I can think

Is I don’t know what makes you smile -

I don’t know what’s underneath.

If only we could get to know

Each other soul to soul

If only we could come to know

The other as a complete whole.

If only we could come to be

Within the divine economy

And there we could ever come

Within the final culture of the home.

I’m glad to hear that Nancy’s well

That Josh has got a girl

And ain’t it fun to know the Bears

Are doing well in the NFL

But what if you could tell me more

And know that I would hear you out

What if I could tell you all

And know you wouldn’t wander off?

Don’t judge those who in their hearts

Yearn and sigh for a better day

Blessed are they who weep away

Blessed are they

Who don’t know what to say

If only we could get to know

Each other soul to soul

If only we could come to know

The other as a complete whole.

If only we could come to be

Within the divine economy

And there we could ever come

Within the final culture of the home.

Blessed are they who weep away

Blessed are they

Who don’t know what to say
