We write a perfect scripture,
fail to live up to that
Word from the wise keep dreaming
but stay unattached
Beauty falls through the cracks,
I walk a lonely track
That everybody does
why we clash just to be intact
Where is the love certainly
not in the TV screens
All that I know is
I feel alive when you're with me
I hurt you everyday, I say I do my best
But heaven knows I fall short,
lost in your breath
How can I make this work,
that's when I take it to God
It started as a mustard seed
and keeps burning inside
How the whole world mutes
when I'm pressing your thighs
When our lips touch I feel well and aligned
So, is it too early to call it what it is
Put a name on it then suddenly it gets volatile
Oh child, take your time
I try to tell the both of us
But my mind races
this isn't a gentle world for us
A twin bed and a place with a parking lot
It ain't much
but it's where you and I could start
I wish I knew the path,
but this is what we've got
We are everything
we are thanks to what we're not
I know you worry
but you hide it underneath your smile
Let me hold you tight squeeze you
into my arms
I know I can be at times
feeling distant and cold
But there's nothing
I won't do to have you a little more
I get quiet on my bad days
Need some time to rejuvenate my past ways
Are still here with me,
you say you'd heal with me
Bare the weight of living
walk this uphill with me
We joke around all smiles and teases galore
The way you rub against me in the subway
good Lord
I gotta have her,
smashing you hard like it's a hammer
Awaken your body to ways
you haven't had love
A lot of things you help me realize
It's clear
when your smooth skin brushes up mine
What care could do to a soul in decline
And how happiness is found
in shared pockets of time
But of course we have our bad days
Struggling to find the right words
to communicate
And we doubt and we tremble inside
On this, ship that I built could we really survive
All I could do is to show you I try
And no one could ever blame you
if you ever decide
This ain't what's for you, so always keep it true
Understand I'll always do what's best us two
But I'll never stop wanting you
