*kiss me in the storm and wipe the raindrops from my face,
you're more afraid to know my tears.
so that's what you meant, when you said "forever",
you meant "for now".
well i guessed that eternity was a fake
and the last page number would be even
but then i was wrong because you took more than i could give you
and the odds were never in my favor
french songs sung with the breath of cold ***
and dizzy dancing on the back porch with you
but it didn't mean enough to be remembered,
the photographs burned out with our love.*

declan you **** but i loved you then in the rain
and again on the mountain but you know
things change and i survived and you did too
and maybe yeah, that was best
because you've got that girl with the name that sounds like mine
and i've got him and he's as good sunshine
and i am happy
and i have learned
