I can't love you beyond these boundaries
I can't love you till it dawns
It pains me to live a norm
But society dictates I have to accept and move on
In this night I hold your hand
I keep looking back at cars coming behind us with headlights on

We both tremble in fear,
As a deer crosses the road,
As we sigh in relief they haven't spotted us at all

I'm inlove with your smile but enchanted by your giggle
We keep our voices down
As We laugh about nothing, as we embrace this night with open arms
Freedom on our palms  
You tell me your Secrets , i shed a couple of mine
We love shamelessly hidden

I miss innocent nights
Skating to pass time
Drunk conversations that end up with you escaping your shell to kiss me under these street lights
Avoiding my question of your fear with your charm
We lovers at a dangerous time

Ill love you throughout the night
As these nights get longer i wake up next to you looking at your closed eyes let them pray , let them pray ill still love you the same
Your eyelids begin to part as I leave
Ill always come back for you
My promise that always sends you back to sleep

Our love questions science and the bible we try to avoid the staring eyes but were too different to be born in this time
Our love is a brocken puzzle only you and i know where each peace is placed but we scared of what people might say
The Secret is Even If you left ill love you the same
Untill then we have these nights
