Dylan's Goodbye to Bradlee J

I looked back
And there you were, down the road
Tunes of Dylan in my head
I smiled to myself
Despite the fact that I was crying
You were so far away
Yet close enough that if I reached out
I just might be able to touch you -
But there was no need.

You were too far gone.
We were too far gone - nearly 6 months gone.

More - if we're honest -
Were we ever really honest?
Hiding behind talk of love
Which we do, but -
Hiding behind little things
"Wow, you have the same birthday?"
Mish-mosh theatre
Love of friends
Love in our hearts
But unable to share it.

I look ahead
And I see new skies
The clouds, the storm, the ice cold rain
Is a mist, now;
Something - someone is in my path
I'm not sure what he wants
But he'd like a little of my time -
And you, you always had my time
But didn't want to take the time
Your love wasn't enough
And you knew it -
I tip my hat to you, sir,
At least you knew when to get off the train
When it stopped running.

Yes, you just kind of wasted
My precious...time...
But you also gave me love.
And warmth.
And solace - and I thank you.

So you're down the road
Away's from me;
I hear your voice
But your face -
I can barely see
And He is by my side
Don't know for how long,
But I'm enjoying the ride -
Didn't know I could again, but
Dear god,
I'm enjoying the ride.

Don't think twice -
It's all right...
I'm enjoying the ride
One way, into the night.
