It was so much more to me than just a kiss.
It repaired the emptiness left by those I miss.
Maybe we see all of these problems we can’t fix.
Being with you was more effective than a drink I’d mix.
My heart catches on fire around you, my eyes shine
And I think of all of the ways I could try to make you mine.
At two in the morning when the bars are all closing
And I take you home and hug you goodnight, I’ll be composing.
I’ll be writing about how next time I’ll hold you close.
I’ll be strong enough to buy you another rose.
You’re the only one I see, I love you and only you
All the beautiful things in the world and you’re the best view.
In one moment, I’d give you everything.
With you, I am like a king.
So, I’ll love you to the moon and back
And I’ll search for all the words I lack.
Gravity pulling me couldn’t change my mind
Nobody could lead me astray, you’re one of a kind.
If going to that moon was the only way to see you once more.
If I crash into the water, I’ll just wait by the shore.
If satellites fall and stars die, and I would go to the darkness
I would be falling still for you, I promise this regardless.
