I thought you were the one
happy sunshine and love
all that stuff we’ve been told
since we were kids, two and one
we had fun, we had love
we were dreaming in sync
one to the other we beat
hearts together and seen
I mean we had so much there
or was it the thrill?
a love exploding
like flowers in sun
fireworks in the summertime
time stretching to get it all
All it takes is a word
to send me high like a bird
or low like a stone
sunk into the ocean deep
what we had were our words
honey dew, chamomile
soothe our minds and our hands
hold us close in our beds
to all our poems, spring!
our hearts both did a thing
we heard love’s song
now that’s gone
and now I’m here in the dark
feeling blue and apart
catching our memories
like wind in the hand
but not to re-live life
to find it again
