I have no recollection of what attracted me to you
Nor do I remember knowing it then.
There stood no physical attraction--
My stomach did not flutter in your presence
Nor did I long for your skin.
But only heaven knows
What I would have given
To remain there forever with you
Listening to your voice
Speaking of what used to be.
How I longed to fall asleep
On that Arizona ground
To the deep cadence of your voice.
But alas the day closed,
And the car pulled away.
With every second
I saw you shrink further away,
The car forcing us worlds apart
As you remained in yours
And I returned to mine.
