A Life Time Or Two To Tell

I miss the nights we called out to each other

I miss the ones spent sprawled out on one another

like long lost lovers the first time our lips met

Barely ready, but on you my heart was set

the wind came in and washed away my worries

You send the butterflies I’ve got into flurries

 

I’m thinking of all the things I should have said

But now I will never have the chance

Of all the cute little things I kept in my head

As I reminisce in our recalled romance

 

your skin was a map guiding me to safety

With your soft arms you did belay me

I’ll trace your tattoos with my tongue

Because we are happy and we are young

Hoping the later doesn’t make the first due

Because I’d love to grow old with you

 

I’m thinking of all the things I should have said

But now I will never have the chance

Of all the cute little things I kept in my head

As I reminisce in our recalled romance

 

I hope that these hopes don’t remain so

Because you mean more then you’ll ever know,

That tale would take a life time or two to tell

and the full attention of you, my beautiful belle

So I guess that’s all ask of you, a life time to say

How perfect you are in every single imaginable way
