Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer and Steve Law - Because Last Night I Dreamt of You

Because last night I dreamt of you
This morning I wake and my body
Is a concert hall still echoing
The beauty of the night before
like the morning after the symphony
When the theater walls and
The red velvet curtains still remember
The swell, the strings, the silence
Before the applause
Oh, how I love my body on these mornings
I linger in the sheets, my eyes closed
My arms flung over my head
My belly soft as I open myself to memory
It's fleeting, it's flirty, it's there
Then it's not
What was symphonic
Is now a mere echo of what was
As if everyone left, but the drummer
Is still there alone on stage
Beating out a tempo, complex
But true
Hello heart. Hello heart
Was it really just a dream
The melody escapes me
But I swear I still hear the rhythm
