Reunion

Story Behind The Song

This was originally written as a poem and was later adapted into a song. It was an expression of the kind of love I hope to find and feel that everyone deserves. It is not that romanticized version of love that we often hear about or see on TV. Rather it is the kind of love I imagine is shared between two people who have been married for many years and even the silence has meaning for them. They are connected in ways most of us long to experience and it has nothing to do with sex or how the other looks, dresses etc. It is about two souls connecting in the beauty of love.

Song Description

The song is expressing a love so deep that the person feels they must have known their lover and loved them in other worlds. They have felt the presence of their lover all throughout their life. They even experienced their love in dreams, in untold stories, in lyrics and in meditation. They have felt this connection even in their moment of creation. So, the love is clearly the bliss of reunion when her soul returned home and found... "you".

Lyrics

I must have visited with you
in the dream world
Our souls must have been connected
in the sacred spiral
for no other reality could explain
the bliss of reunion

I must have visited with you
in the dream world
Our souls must have been connected in the sacred spiral
for evidences of your essence
have been manifested
in the subconscious folds of my being
You have appeared in my untold stories
In the lyrics authored by my heart
In the prayers and incantations of my soul
uttered with yearning lips
hungry for the nearness of you
I have felt your presence
in those silent moments
when unfettered by the changes and chances of the material world,
my sight turned inward
and met my soul

I must have visited with you
in the dream world
Our souls must have been connected
In the sacred spiral
for no other reality could explain
the bliss of reunion

I could swear your silhouette has rested with me
on the shores of my inner peace
and flowed within the waters that birthed me
I am certain that your presence
circumambulated the air that gave rise to my voice
Instrumental in the phrasing of my melody
You must have been intrinsic
in the energy of my soul
for I have felt your presence
in the earth beneath my feet
in the threads that wove my path
and in the rays of the sun that gave me the strength
to lift up my eyes and gaze upon the heavens
I must have visited with you
in the dream worlds
For no other reality could explain
the bliss of reunion
when my soul returned home
and found you

I must have visited with you
in the dream worlds
Our souls must have been connected
in the sacred spiral
for no other reality could explain
the bliss of reunion
