Narrow Stairs

I descended a dusty gravel ridge
 Beneath the Bixby Canyon Bridge
 Until I eventually arrived
 At the place where your soul had died.


 Barefoot in the shallow creek,
 I grabbed some stones from underneath
 And waited for you to speak to me.


 In the silence it became so very clear
 That you had long ago disappeared.
 I cursed myself for being surprised
 That this didn't play like it did in my mind.


 All the way from San Francisco
 As I chased the end of your road
 'Cause I've still got miles to go.


 And I want to know my fate
 If I keep up this way.


 And it's hard to want to stay awake
 When everyone you meet, they all seem to be asleep
 And you wonder if you're missing a dream


 You can't see a dream
 You can't see a dream.
 You just can't see a dream.
 A dream


 And then it started getting dark.
 I trudged back to where the car was parked
 No closer to any kind of truth
 As I assume was the case with you.
