I wish you knew her like I know her.

The smokey darkness of dimly lit hair
And the smell of Gewurtztraminer on the air
On her breath, which tastes like sunlight
Illuminating the path to breathlessness.

I wish you knew her like I know her.

The watery depths if the green lagoons
Like emeralds in a princess' tiara
Guarding sunlight on her brow;
If only the sun would rise right now.

You'll never know her like I know her.

She's too much for you to handle
Like a child and red balloon watching,
Knowing you'll let go of it soon and cry
Knowing you almost did it on purpose.

Maybe balloons are meant to let fly high,
With the clouds up in the sky.
But don't fret, I don't mean that I will let her go,
I'm up there as a balloon, just like her, you know

You'll never know me like she knows me.

It's only forest eyes and oak hair
With a favorite color similar to a pear
But much sweeter, more than any fruit
And ripe for the tasting, all the way to the roots.

I love her, and she loves me.

I don't wish anything for you a this point you know.
Just gather your things, your memories, and go.
