Sparkle (Notevember 2023, #28)

Now
Now the journey nears its end
And the water carries
Luminaries
On their final stage

And I
I’m so glad I have a friend
To share the falls and rises
All surprises
Waiting as we turned the page

Though home is remote
As you row, row our boat
We can dream we’ll be there
Soon enough
And too soon
And too soon

We
We could go again next year
I can hardly wait
Set a date
We’ll be reunited

So
So let go of all your fear
Face another round
Of ups and downs
Prepare to be delighted

The stars that I spy
All around, floating by
Make me feel like we’re there
Soon enough
Not too soon
Not too soon

No, don’t cry
This is not our last goodbye
Don’t cry, don’t cry
This is not our last goodbye

Not so soon
So soon
So soon
