(scat)

I am lost in meditation,
And my reverie
Brings you back to me;
For, in my imagination,
Love has lingered on
As though you'd never gone!

This is just a dream that cannot last
When the magic of this mood has passed.

so I sit in meditayion,
Trying tp pretend
This mood will never end!

Lost in meditation,
And my reverie
Brings you back to me!
