As we passed each other
Windy night, dark outside
Looking but no -
Things go like this
Anyway
You turned around and said:
Why follow how things go
So we ended up beyond looking
A film! That didn't end
particularly well in the end
It is all about intentions
And my intention on that particular corner
of that particular night was that
I decided to stop thinking
about you as my heart and home
So I followed this destraction
came right on time
But every shelf life expires
Anyway
Thank you for being the best rebound boy
ever, forever and never

I think I stay inside
for now I'm happy
to know that
Outside the lights
shine bright and that
life's are being lived

Your words against mine
Sword against pen
Mind against heart
Planning against pride

The lines of that song
on the radio
humming along though

The smell of your perfume
next to me on the tube
breathe in even though

That one coffee in the morning
alone in my kitchen
don't think just drink

Unexpected moments
expectantly right in my face
my heart stops and
instinctively my own life
on our terms
somehow still
sensing where you are...

want to hear my
side of the story
or have you
made up your mind
alright?

can be friendly
all day
every day
if kindness has a definition
anyway

singing along to the radio
dancing around the house
lying next to you
curling up to breathe safely
