We lay back together in the grass
spotting pictures in the clouds
sharing hopes and dreams
and things seldom said out loud

We talk of how things used to be
'tween the present and the past
and slowly build a deeper bond
that for the rest of time will last

Our words come very easily
nothings forced, no awkward pause
and we talk about most everything
from god to santa claus

As the clouds depart the clearing sky
and we turn onto our sides
we look into each others eyes
and the truth we cannot hide

We came to this place not strangers
but as friends who'd never met
not knowing what this day would be
one to remember, one to forget?

I lay back once more and close my eyes
and start to reminisce
but my story's interrupted
by the softness of your kiss

My eyes begin to open
did you just... I'm not too sure
and I see it deep within your eyes
you kiss me just once more

And it turns out that this moment
is something we both dreamt about
both unknowing and uncertain
of how things might just turn out

So here we are in silence now
free from fears constricting ties
saying all thats left to say
with what lives behind our eyes.
