a love like ours makes the moon hide behind the sun
and fireflies swirl across a river

electricity sparked through your fingertips
while I was counting droplets last night on our window
each shadow sliding down my cheeks
waiting to reach my lips

love like you makes me think
that the knots that tie us together are laced with gold

a love like ours doesn't exist in fairytales
because our secrets are passed on through the wind
and when I'm gone your fire will keep my ashes warm
leaving no trace of the love we left behind
