There we laid in bed
Face to face
Bodies connected
Our hands in a constant motion
Sending affection
through our fingertips

Like hands feeling the rushing waters
of a river for the first time.
My head was cradled by your arm,
reminding me that I was safe.

I looked into your eyes.
I looked into your soul.
I'll never let go of that moment.
I felt at home in your presence...

Close eyes
open heart
breathe
get through this
breathe
open eyes


...I'm chasing shadows thinking they are you
I'm doing double takes in town
I'm Listing off the reasons
But the days are getting stale
And nights are extra cold
I'm here with a memory
Of what is was like to
love life
With you

I always thought I'd grow old
With you
And now I'm told it's untrue
With you

So I'm jumping through hoops
And Washing away the thoughts
Of you
And nothing seems to break this
So I'm just
Running in circles
Chasing the darkness
Trying to find my way
Oh I never thought it'd be like this
Living in a memory of what it was
With you

I always thought I'd grow old
With you
And now I know it was untrue
With you
