I'm seaching for traces of you in the ether left of your short presence The warm glow of basking in your thoughts of me The quiet pleasure of knowing I've affected you in some way Unruffled you refuse to give anything away You didn't think it through My soul has a window on you The stony looks hide nothing of our irreverent connection Lost to the world for seconds that fill the void with lifetimes Scorched by those burning eyes your glow already envelops me Don't get too close, Sparks have a habit of spurring flames We know better than to mix fire with gasoline A quick touch Transfers so much I am left reeling I push you away though you still linger in my atmosphere Standing in your vacated place Till the last vibration of warmth dissipates And my soul has the course to move again searching for another chance to hover near you In time and spaces undefined by the regular course of love.

By chance to linger irreverently in love
I'm seaching for traces of you in the ether left of your short presence The warm glow of basking in your thoughts of me The quiet pleasure of knowing I've affected you in some way Unruffled you refuse to give anything away You didn't think it through My soul has a window on you The stony looks hide nothing of our irreverent connection Lost to the world for seconds that fill the void with lifetimes Scorched by those burning eyes your glow already envelops me Don't get too close, Sparks have a habit of spurring flames We know better than to mix fire with gasoline A quick touch Transfers so much I am left reeling I push you away though you still linger in my atmosphere Standing in your vacated place Till the last vibration of warmth dissipates And my soul has the course to move again searching for another chance to hover near you In time and spaces undefined by the regular course of love.
