Click,
So I reach for your tucked-away letters
They lilt with forgotten feelings
Promises, broken like innocence
That you've made me forgot
They're gone and I've learned
Always is the shortest time I've ever known and
Forever's just a
Moment, so shut your eyes and remember the way
The music sounded/ our breath felt/ the air smelled
The first time we said forever and always
This lady's reading signs on the wall
And she knows…
I know…
Sometimes words have two meanings
Remember, remember…
If I shake you gently will the words jump
From the yellow page in my palm
Into your tongue?
Heart?
Where have those words gone? I'm looking for them…
We'll be friends with a secret past and lovers with a
Secret future
Foolish, as you deny the stars in my eyes
They'll be there forever
Ooh, and it makes me wonder…
Where are we headed, if not towards eachother?
What are we all looking for?
All there is is love, I know
All there is is love…
I didn't know how dead I was
How much I'd lost
Until you made me alive tonight
Bittersweetly alive, and
My eyes are yours, to do with what you wish
They can cry and gaze and shine with stars…
Forever and always
Ooh, and it makes me wonder…
Ooh, and it makes me wonder…
