Timothy’s World

                    Timothy’s World

TIMOTHY, OH TIMOTHY.

YOU WERE ALL THE WORLD TO ME.

I GAVE MY HEART AND SOUL TO THEE.

I WAS YOUR’S FOR ETERNITY.

ALL OUR CASTLES IN THE SKY

HAVE NOW ALL CRUMBLED INTO LIES.

REMEMBER WHEN YOU FLEW ME THERE?

WIND WAS WHISTLING THROUGH OUR HAIR.

WE DANCED TOGETHER IN FAIRY DUST.

THEN SAILED OFF, JUST THE TWO OF US.

WE SLID DOWN A MOONBEAM BRIGHT,

ACROSS A CLEAR AND STARY NIGHT.

 

OH TIMOTHY, MY TIMOTHY.

TELL ME WHY WOU’VE GONE FROM ME.

WITHOUT YOU DEAR, I CANNOT FLY.

THERE’S NOTHING LEFT EXCEPT TO CRY.

CRY ALONE IN MISERY.

OH TIMOTHY, MY TIMOTHY.

 

REMEMBER WHEN OUR MINDS WERE ONE?

THE MENTAL GAMES WE’D PLAY FOR FUN.

YOU’D CHASE ME THROUGH MY MEMORIES PAST.

THERE WERE NO WALLS TO BLOCK OUR PATH.

THEN, I’D CHASE YOU AND CATCH YOU DEAR.

YOU WEREN’T AFRAID. THERE WAS NO FEAR.

I CAME TO YOU IN NUDITY.

WE BONDED THEN, JUST YOU AND ME.

OUR MINDS AND BODIES BECAME AS ONE.

WE FLEW INTO A BLINDING SUN.

WE SAILED OFF TO ETERNITY.

FOREVER YOURS I’D ALWAYS BE.

 

OH TIMOTHY, MY TIMOTHY.

TELL ME WHY WOU’VE GONE FROM ME?

WITHOUT YOU DEAR, I CANNOT FLY.

THERE’S NOTHING LEFT EXCEPT TO CRY.

CRY ALONE IN MISERY.

OH TIMOTHY—- MY TIMOTHY.——-R. W. JOHNSON——-(1998)
