i met him in the dark
his silhouette against the city
under the smog-filled sky
i fell in love too quickly

with his silhouette against the city
he shone brighter than the lights
i fell in love too quickly
with a shadow of the night

he shone brighter than the lights
blinded me amidst the show
our shadows of the night
intertwined and set aglow

blinded amidst the show
graced by a stranger’s soft words
intertwined and set aglow
i met him in the dark


- imagine what he looked like in the light
