it ebbs, it flows
it can be invisible, intangible.
yet it can be the most powerful
tool
weapon
defense
and saving grace

You see you, you see a girl
I see you, I see the world

I see the world so deep in your glacé brown eyes
I see a world so bright like luminous fireflies

I hear your laughter echoing in the night
I feel your soft hands hold on to mine tight

The way that your voice makes me smile inside
Could send me to heaven and be unsatisfied

Long after the sun sets you’re still in my mind
Hopefully tomorrow you’re this easy to find

Because before the sun sets we must say goodbye
And dream of the next time that we’ll be side by side
