Like A Rope Down A Well
©Jay Bertalan
It seems you recognize the fact
only you and I can see it
No matter, they will all believe you
if you yourself do
Once lost but now recovered
look up it’s being lowered to you
It’s a simple fact of the matter
you see from here it’s clearer too
Like a rope down a well yes, only you can tell it’s a rope down a well and it goes unspoken
Make mention of the future approaching
how can you resist it
Another look behind you
before you close an open door
Beyond belief I swear it
could not be any more insistent
So goes the story sending
each of us yearning for more
Like a rope down a well but, only you can tell
it’s a rope down a well and it goes unspoken
Hang on once you can reach it
if only proving your existence
No one will take it from you
it’s not for anyone else
Like a rope down a well yes, only you can tell
it’s a rope down a well and it goes unspoken
