She’ll get me in the feels If she so much as glances this way Was it something I did Or I didn’t say As we weave our tapestry So fine as silk Not talking about the boys On the bus or their ilk And I’m all snowed under You’re the sound of thunder Crashing like waves Over every beach I try to save From its fate of being washed away Could you say That we’re just watching the universe play With little trinkets they call sand I drop my gaze and grasp your hand As you look away Is there nothing left to say But the silence that we effortless speak Like the days of the week Or the months of the year Did you shed a tear When you heard me say I’m leaving tomorrow for another day And the way Is made, it’s just we haven’t walked it But it will be ok as soon as we’ve talked it Out again among ourselves Quiet in our work packing shelves In the supermarket we visit You made a show of yourself, is it? As we wander through woods And I wonder if you have the goods Or just feint that way I know we are lost but it is okay You see the diamond mine shine A thousand stars in the firmament thine To consider thus In the Heavens I place my trust Because where else would you look We read it like it’s a good book And the fountain of everywhere knows our name It was one and one til we’re not the same But make two into union And what are ya doing With your head beneath the covers Coz we’re more than just lovers To set a flame And it would be a shame To waste a good cry on the sheets When the riverbed is where we meet Out into the sea You said there’s no one like me And I believe ya When you said I freed ya From the storm Now let me keep you warm On those howling lights Let’s make love instead of fights And war What is this battlefield for If not to teach us the value of peace An unearthly quiet as it all cease And you look into my eyes I know that which never dies And I see it in you You’re red and I’m blue And we’re both a kaleidoscope And I have hope In our return to cessation You play the wine, I’ll change the station Back into a different tune I shook when you were in the room And you gazed at me so everlong Like nothing could ever be that strong Will you swim to the sea Coz what is the ocean if it’s not with me?
