The sounds of explosions startle my heart Deafening booms in my ears But its worth it to be sitting here with you Colorful explosions intermingle Your hand reaches mine and i find our hands intertwining Its a dance they do to the beat of the booms Fireworks in the dark It is all so very magical But will it last through the night This long yet short lived day has flown away Your breath tickles my neck as you lean in to say your good-byes I had been so lost in the thought of tomorrow that i forgot about today Now its over and there you are leaving You take my hand one last time You come near as you whisper in my ear We'll always have fireworks in the dark I smile as we part I now know that this is just the start
