To Gloria

Red across the air
Like yourself - in yourself - by yourself

Gone side by side
Looking back - through the black - pitching time

Sound of the chase
Ringing loud - one for me - one for you

Gloria

This, how and when
It should be - it will be - it can be

White on the page
Come again - I believe - that will do

Gloria

And by and far
Reaching all - without words - but for you

Thus if you stay
Like yourself - in yourself - by yourself

Gloria
