Musing.........Dave Matthews and Life's Longings......for Maureen, Creighton and Dagmar and all my Capricorns..

I have been listening to The Dave Matthews Band lately - I listen to them off and on - I wonder why they tour so much? Dave is a Capricorn (Happy Birthday, Dave!)..workaholic. Must be it. Caps are Goats that must CLIMB!!! Goats eat anything to survive! And they do survive - quite well....if depression does not get them.
I admire Capricorns.
These lyrics make me cry......I have slept an inordinate amount of time since my late husband died. He had Moon in Capricorn and a Capricorn Mother. That is heavy.
A Poet  once told me that the most horrific loss in life is the loss of love. Hmmm.........I wonder........what do you think?

Sleep To Dream Her lyrics

I know I'll miss her later
Wish I could bend my love to hate her
Wish I could be her creator
To twist her arms now

She stares up at the stars when
The stars fell from her hair then
I bent down to collect them
And then she was gone

Oh, I sleep just to dream her
I beg the night just to see her
That my only love should be her
Just to lie in her arms

Oh, I came there to find out
Find out she'd made up her mind, oh
My arms are all tied up
To me she was blind

This space between us
Where wingless dreams fall earless
Will you not bear me witness
With your back to me now

It seemed so unnerving
Still somehow deserving
That she could hold my heart so tightly
And still not see me here, oh

Oh, I sleep just to dream her
Beg the night just to see her
That my only love should be her
Just to lie in her arms

I know I'll miss her later
Wish I could bend my love to hate her
Wish I could be her creator
To be the light in her eyes

In Love, Light, and always -  Beauty
