I want this kiss to end,
it brings me pain to say
that I've thought a lot about it
and at risk of sounding cliche:
we wanted it to last forever
and I'm sorry that it can't be,
but when I'm done explaining
I'm hoping that you'll see.
Eternity has no meaning
as profound as it may seem;
value is found in the fleeting
otherwise we'd always dream.
The thing that makes it beautiful
is that it has an ending,
our time is short and limited
so we choose where our time is worth spending.
We choose to be together
as our lives are drifting by,
we'll take each others breath away
until we finally die.
I want this kiss to end,
on that I'm very sure.
I want this kiss to end
so I can give you a thousand more.
