Last night I pretended that you didn't exist
And, sadly, the world went unchanged
But for one single second of one single hour
In this closed little world, I felt no pain
Last night I pretended that you didn't exist
For at the time I wished it were true
I imagined that you hadn't come into my life
That I hadn't both loved and lost you
Last night I pretended that you didn't exist
And for a while I almost believed it
I never heard your voice and I never kissed you
So grand a scheme, I'm surprised I conceived it
Last night I pretended that you didn't exist
But in a moment that dream was shattered
You called me up in the middle of the night
And my safe pretend world was scattered

The breeze glides smoothly down my lungs
Your soft hand engulfs mine
Your thumb lazily strokes my bones as if strumming a tune
This was my spring
My room mirrors the mood as we stumble in
It greets us with fogging windows
My breath quickens as your love consumes me
This was my summer
You pull away from me as I only try to comfort
Your distant eyes avoid mine at all cost
The games we used to play no longer seem fun and carefree
This was my autumn
Pictures surround me of warmer, happier times
When the summer still clung to the earth with pride
Pictures at which, however, I refuse to look
This was my winter
Stiff greetings are met with stiffer coats
The scratchy scarf covers the mouth I had kissed
And as your deep voice promises to trip me once again
This is my moving on

Let's get lost in a world of thought
Then try to think our way back
Reality is just a touch away
But dreaming is something we lack
You take my hand, I'll take yours
We'll dream up a world of our own
Where you and I are buyers and sellers
I'll give you my love on a loan
Let's laugh our way to happiness
Let's bend until we break
Let's fall until we hit the bottom
If only for lovers' sake
