Song For River Phoenix
Dana Lyons

So many times you said it without speaking

So many times I stopped, then turned away

If I had known that you would soon be leaving

I might have listened in a different way


I might have walked with you a little farther

And on the bus I would have held your hand

I might have said to you come on my brother

Lets get going home


But these are wishes of a broken soldier

The scattered ripples on a frozen sea

The empty questions of a would be lover

I wonder when you will come back to me


I wonder if I'll see you in the forest


I'll think of you each time the Raven calls

Maybe I'll meet you in that ancient Cedar

Hiding from it all


But now the winter clouds they blow so coldly

Beneath the grayness of the morning sky

The autumn leaves are melting into soil

It seems less often that I wonder why


I might have walked with you a little farther

And on the bus I would have held your hand

I might have said to you come on my brother

Lets get going home
