|
It's like we know the words and melodies |
|
But we're singing them in half time. |
|
I lean in closer |
|
Feel you breathing |
|
But your eyes look away, and I stop on a dime. |
|
I believe in the life that we seek. |
|
It can far outweigh the risks we take. |
|
Could this be everything that I wanted? |
|
Could I be the one you were waiting for? |
|
A different time and place. |
|
We can't erase these footsteps anymore. |
|
A second glance, a subtle smile |
|
We smuggle knowingly in hindsight. |
|
We traffic nuances and sophistry. |
|
We steal our escapes |
|
Making use of sleight. |
|
Damn the state of our hearts and our minds |
|
As our resolve slowly unwinds. |
|
My eyes wide open, its poetry in motion |
|
How our minds could let us pretend my heart's not in it. |
|
My mind goes by the minute |
|
Whether I wanna see how this ends. |
|
If we can start again when we want to |
|
Then why are we always behind the gun? |
|
If you're holding out for answers |
|
Greener pastures, you're not the only one. |
