I understand last chances
Spinning round in stale romances
All the steps back and advances
I’m not sure that’s how Love dances
I understand last chances
Spinning round in stale romances
All the steps back and advances
I’m not sure that’s how Love dances
I’m giving in
Not giving up
You’re still here
Some days, that’s enough
The pull’s insistence
Grew stronger with distance
I’m no longer sure it was natural
When you dropped that bomb
With arrogant aplomb
I assure you, the damage was actual
The Years may be false
But Seasons are true
And it’s been a full four
Since I’ve held you
Time may collapse
But Now holds strong
And the Presents you give me
Never last long
Sometimes I wonder, why you went asunder
When two young boys needed thee
Even souls free of strife, can’t make much of a life
With their bodies buried at sea
Then I hear your voice, giving me the choice
What kind of woman will I be?
And I pray to my father, come hell and high water,
It’s your blood that runs through me
Lovers come and love, he’s gone
Wasn’t the sort to hang hopes on
Lovers’ love, I cannot commend
But love, I’d welcome you as my friend
The tempo of my thoughts slow down
In your good company
As I come to be with you,
I also come to be
The longest day
That I’ve befriended
Began the moment
Our friendship ended
We lived in every colour
The full spectrum of ourselves
Still now, when I see roses
Yellow are for no one else
When I have fear you may cease to be,
I write the words you’ve given me
I hold them tight inside my heart
I tell myself, this is a start
I feel the fear flow through my veins
I let my love transfuse the pain
When I have fear you will be gone,
I take your words, and I hold on
