I will hold your heart until it stops beating
And I will remember your name even when it ceases to have meaning.
I will love your face when it grows older
Even when your skin grows colder.

I remember the day I fell in love with your smile
And the day it was us against the world for a little while.
I remember smoking cigarettes and being so nervous
About smelling bad and how the nicotine controlled us.

I know that we kiss and I know it means something,
But I cherish the moments in which we say nothing.
I remember the day you went away, and we tried not to cry but the tears came anyway.

And I know you love someone else and so do I but if our paths ever cross I feel I'd be ready this time.
What we have is nothing that anyone can understand,
But I constantly crave your voice like music from our favorite band.

We are simple as rain as a tree,
Excuse me for repetition, but there's nothing to see.
We are in sync and need each other more than we could ever know,
And I'll love you forever I could never let you go.
