Dear Joan

Dear Joan
It’s been a while since you called my name
and it’s just not the same without you here to play
Dear Joan
I found your pennies at my door today
This time of year thoughts of you keep me awake
If I only knew back then
that hearts can break what minds can bend
You know I never would have taken him away
Dear Joan
You’re missed more than you know
I wish you’d share the secret to your everlasting peace
You’re free
But December covers me
And you know that I won’t ever, ever let ‘em see me cry
But sometimes I see you in Jette’s eyes
Last night
I saw the sun set over Hollywood
For a moment I could see a smile across his face
Tree lights
twinkle on top of Capitol
This time of year thoughts of you fill the space
And if I only had the chance
To give you each the moment back
Could you rest knowing he never let you go?
Dear Joan
You missed more than you know
I wish you’d share the secret to your everlasting peace
You’re free
But December covers me
And you know that I won’t ever, ever let ‘em see me cry
But sometimes I see you in Jette’s eyes
Dear Joan
It’s been a while
