Carried Away

Song: "The Far Side of the World" by Tidelines

***

Author's Note: I recently discovered this song and band and have been sustained over the past year and a half with their music and the music that I have found through them. This music speaks to my soul in ways only a "highlander" might understand. I hope you enjoy the song and the poem it inspired.

***

Oh, how the music makes me sway

And the lyrics carry me away

I feel the smile tugging at my lips

As the rhythm catches my hips

***

I see myself on those shores faraway

I reach out as my fingers find the way

A message carried by the wind

As time and space to me bends

***

Though your home is a stranger to me

It's the place my heart longs to be

All these many miles between us

I feel them in the moments of silence

***

But your song reaches out to me

And I know it's the same sky you see

I look up and see you in the stars

And I know exactly where you are

***

One day, I know we will stand together

Never to be parted from each other

Until that day comes, I will sway

And let your lyrics carry me away

***
