I have seen you sometime before

I have seen you sometime before
before the light began to glow
heads abuzz with ideas,
before the lights began to glow.

I have wandered through the streets
seeking solace in my loneliness.

Day after day, I stood alone
having nothing to stand on and on,
I have seen you sometime before
when all the lights turned on
looking for someone to answer my questions
I have seen you sometime before.

Please tell me you know me well
that in my loneliness
the thought of you kept me alive
I could almost see you
looking into the streets.

SO lonely was I could recognize
NOT my shadow,
I have seen you sometime before
all the pain began to come alive
consume me with all its appetite,
I have known you only as I could no you.

You kept me warm during the winter
and shielded my soul from certain ruin
loved me for some God-forsaken reason
and showed me most of all your infinite love,
where I could have seen you somewhere before.

Please don't leave me alive
take me with you to the starry wells
unveil the curtains of night
and show me yes the things that go.
